I mean, if you were a SEAL, would you rather work with some replacements that were volunteers from a "local" Marine unit or some proper SBS commandos?

Marines would be the good choice. Because they would have familiarity with one another and their operations, doctine would be similiar as well as equipment and other operational considerations. I would even go as far as saying that, some of the training would be on par again allowing for a smoother ability to operate with one another. And of course the whole phsycological focus of operating with your countrymen, so you would not feel you were amongst strangers.
