What is the difference between NGK's BCPxxx vs. BKxxx ? From their chart (goto http://ngk.com/sparkplug411.asp and click on "Manufacturer's Numbering System NGK" at the bottom of the page):

B = 14mm thread diameter
C = Hex Size 5/8"
P = Projected Insulator Type
K = Hex Size 5/8" Projected Tip (ISO)

Does that mean BCP = BK ? Well, the BK5ES doesn't exist in their catalog, so I'm guessing that the designation between BCP vs. BK is based on whim at NGK....
The "K" type have some different dimensions than standard types and need a special compatible boot.

Why don't you just buy the proper Bosch plugs instead of trying to reinvent the wheel?
