Paint Question (Not the Usual)

I have a 1990 Formula. I know the name of the paint is 'Gunmetal Metallic'. The GM paint code is 87. When I look at the page I have listed below, there are 2 DIFFERENT PPG codes & WA #'s listed for code 87. What is the difference and how do I tell which one is correct?

look on your spid sheet either in the center consel armrest or in the glove box in the hatch. on the bottom of the spid sheet there will be bc/cc WA-xxxx. that is going to be your paint code and that should match one of the PPG codes. hope this helps.

Unfortunately, I don't have that sheet.
