If you already typed, you still go through the whole initial training footprint.
Edit: when they say "FAA Type oral/sim" it just means you are getting a new certificate or rating...these are done by company APD's.

No difference for prior types for training. You'll take the checkride with your sim partner.

Regarding seat specifics during the checkride
I can't speak for all APD's, but I brief the FO's on what is required prior to the sim. Generally, the examiner is only there as a role player for the flight routine (dispatch, maintenance, ATC, flight attendants, etc.). They can't be there as an "instructor". However, I tell them I can help if needed on CA specific items (such as CA flows).
There is a little bit of evaluation when they're in the left seat because they are required to perform pilot monitoring duties, which are the same regardless of the seat (after takeoff flow, approach setup, etc.). If they're in the left seat and are totally screwing up as pilot monitoring (not the CA specific items), then the examiner could unsat the SOP's as pilot monitoring.
This doesn't happen often, but it does happen every once in a while.

Other differences are that you should have a leg up on everyone and an extra $5000 sign on bonus!

That said, there's no way to avoid the 200 entirely, in any domicile, particularly on reserve.
