Which type of detonator do you prefer?

I've been rolling this around my head and haven't gotten the chance to test it out but I was wondering if anyone else has:

With the vulnerability mod, you can see the ships weak spots, my question is that, where it shows the 'keel', if you shoot a mag torp directly in the middle of that blue area, is that the equivalent of hitting a ship's fuel bunker with an impact torp? Ergo, it will split in two? Also, it seems that hitting a ship under the keel, directly below the fuel bunker does less damage than an impact shot, 4m below the waterline in the same area, maybe I was off by a meter but it seems, when I go for the fuel bunker, an impact shot at 4m will take one torp while a magnetic torp will take two in the same place to take effect.
