If the parts manual lists them as optional equipment why would these other articles be so definite that they weren't used here?

The air compressor could be fitted to a C8A but the compressor needs the gearbox to to be engaged in a forward gear to operate.
Since the C8A's single speed transfer case does not have a neutral position, the air compessor would only be able to be used if the vehicle were in motion or if it had it's driving wheels jacked off the ground.
