@Jim Eshelman said
Case also used the oldest forms Sepher Yetzirah] as his standard (even down to, and including, the YHV permutations in chapter 1.
This is the first time I've heard suggested that there are versions of the Sepher Yetzirah that use something other than YHV for the permutations.
Is my interpretation of what I'm reading correct?

No, you misunderstood: They all use YHV, but the various permutations are attributed to different directions in different editions.

For comparison: The Short Version of SY (the one referenced above) gives the permutations in this order:
YHV YVH HYV HVY VYH VHYThe (later) Long Version gives them in the following order:
YHV YVH VYH VHY YVH HYVThe (much later) Gra Version gives them as follows:
YHV HYV VYH VHY YVH HVY
