Default Porsche part equivalent?

I am aware that Porsche sources many car parts from other brands: BMW, Audi, and VW to name 3. For instance, the lifters used in my 986 S are apparently the same as found in the BMW parts bin. My question is, does anyone know of a list or resource to find the equivalent part number? For example, the lifters at Porsche are part number 99610504172, so the corresponding BMW # would be .....
Thanks for any info you might have!

NewArt, Did you ever get an answer to this question?
I 'think' the BMW number is 11 32 1 748 884 but can not find confirmation.
Grateful for any suggestions

I got very limited response to this thread. In the end, I didn't change any lifters as they all seemed fine, so I didn't pursue it further.

I just posted a lot of the info you were seeking. Not sure if it would have helped you but you are welcome to contribute any additional info to that thread.It is titled: "Lifter replacement/fix/Upgrade".
