    Not possible, you need to know your systems if they are 32 or 64 bit ahead of the installation.

    Not possible to find.

    See the sep empolyee TED G. comment

    64-bit OSes will only allow you to install a 64-bit version os SEP, same with a 32-bit OS. You don't need to know which machines have what because when you assign a package to a group for migrating to the latest version the program is smart enough to know which package goes to which OS.

    Howevery if you scan your network via Deployment wizard, it would tell you which one is 64 bit and you can install accordingly

    When you add install packages, the client will also be able to determine the correct OS. It all happens automatically.

    --> There is not any script available & SEPM itself is intelligent to deploy correct version of SEP.
