Is there a difference in a 2.0L out of a bus as opposed to a 2.0L out of a 914? I was under the assumption that a bus engine had different heads. I don't know where I heard that. Maybe I just made that up.

Bus crankshafts have the pilot bearing (same part as the one used in a 914) installed in the crank because the mainshaft is longer. Bus cranks for use with an auto trans don't have the bearing. 914s have the bearing in the flywheel. The bearing in the bus crank doesn't interfere with anything in the 914 application, so it can be left in place.
