I think the sulphur content in the heating oil is about 5000 ppm, while in the ULSD, it should be around 15 ppm. That won't matter. The heating oil will also have more parafin ( I think), because they don't remove it from the heating oil. It COULD, and a I say could become a problem in very cold weather, but this time of year is no problem.
I wouldn't worry too much about additives, but it never hurts to use a fuel conditioner just to help dispell moisture. I'd use the furnace oil. Just don't get caught.
