Purge valve alternative part numbers

Yes, I know I can get a used valve. Bosch says the Saab part, Bosch 0280142386, was never available as aftermarket in the US. They aren't sure about Europe. I can't find it in a search.
I'm wondering if anyone has tried alternative parts. For example, Bosch 0280142300 for some 9000 and many Volvos or Bosch 0280142308 for Audi/VW. The connectors seem similar in photos. Bosch won't release the specs. They tell me the 300 is a different type, whatever that means. The 308 is a "coin toss" as to whether it would work. VW retains the specs.
If I'm not using the hard nylon line, I don't care about the size of the barbs. All that matters is that it opens and closes at the same points in the cycle and doesn't throw codes? Can I cause any harm using the incorrect purge valve?
