See :help latex-suite and search for CompileRule. In particular, the section on Tex_CompileRule_format provides information on how to specify which command to use to build your document. You can specify your format directly, and you can probably create a map to easily switch settings as needed. I'm a little skeptical about whether you have a good reason to have three different distributions. I'm also surprised that TeXShop is bundled with its own distribution. Ideally, you should just be using MacTeX (which is just TeXLive for Mac): http://www.tug.org/mactex/ Moreover, if you use MacTeX, it will add a panel to your Mac system configuration that allows you to quickly switch which distribution you are pointing to (it just adjusts a symlink from /usr/texbin to the appropriate distribution). If I remember correctly, it only supports a couple of non-MacTeX alternatives. However, you may be able to use it as inspiration for your own setup.
