That could be so, but if you load these OPL data into another OPL or
in the custom voice register of OPLL, they don't sound exactly the
same! Who can explain this?

Yes. I think an FM synthesis algorithm adjusted to OPLL parameters
should give better results in matching the original sound than using
an OPL3 for synthesis. The OPL3 just doesn't sounds quite like an
OPLL IMHO.
BTW. FM synthesis rules for some purposes. It is greatly
underappreciated! Just have a look at the Yamaha DX-7, still a
classic.
