Update following correspondence with Brian Skiff and Paul Crowther:
AL412 is identified with the Sanduleak object (i.e., not the BE74/WS64 target) by McFarland, Lindsay & Andrews (1975). The WR has been observed by Foellmi (at SAAO) and by Crowther (at ESO), and their telescope co-ordinates in the FITS headers also match the Sanduleak position. This is also the object marked in the BAT99 catalogue finder-chart.
It therefore seems likely that BE74, WS64, and FDA76 are in error (unless both objects are emission-line sources, although it seems improbable that each investigator should find only one of two close emission-line objects of similar brightness).
