> this hack will revert googlebot to this style?
Yes.

> How will the product understand that it is a searchbot?
vBulletin sets the Variable $show['search_engine'] to true if it is a Search Engine.
There are no special settings required.

i dont think SEs will punish forums for using this style at all !.. cause we are displaying the unique content to both guests, spiders and members ?

SE Spiders don't download pages as a user would and I really don't think they care for any style over another
