The bore on simple/Albert systems is more similar to Boehm system bores than German bores, so an old mouthpiece made for them will work on Boehms (and vice versa).
Mouthpiece length is variable and the bore size will affect the tuning, so two identical length mouthpieces may play at different pitches because of their different bore size whereas two slightly different length ones may both play at the same pitch because of that too. Mouthpieces with a larger bore will play flatter than ones with a narrower bore.
