As far I know each manufacturer use confidential compound for their cars developed with michelin engineers; even if I recall well in 2014 during silverstone heavy rain race, ferrari complained about how michelin supplying a real ultra wet compound tires only to porsche.
Anyway, it's really unlikely that gt or gt3 tires could be used as base for lmp2/dpi.
About timelap improvements, well a direct comparison there will be during sebring 12H with IMSA michelin lmp2 and WEC mainly dunlop lmp2.
