I'm not sure what is meant by an "English hackamore". If your talking about a cavison this is usually part of the English headstall (bridle without reins). With this cavison you can attatch different training devices like a running or standing martingales.
By English hackamore I think you mean a cavason. Cavasons are standard on most English bridles. There are cavasons for western bridles and they are used for training devices such as standing martingales (tie-down in western speak) or running martingales.
Hackamores are bridles without bits, so you do not put bits on them.
A bosal hackamore may work. There's also a number of good bitless bridles.

Yes, Western and English bridles differ greatly. For one thing, they have completely different uses. For another thing, there are many types of English bridles, all used for specific events. Western bridles are pretty close to each other, although some do differ. English bridles are very complex and have many straps and different bits or reins. Western bridles are mush simpler, and do not have nose bands or chin straps. Some have throat latches, but many don't. I could go on forever listing the differences, but I'll just leave it at that.

A Mechanical Hackamore has shanks and puts pressure on the poll and chin much like a curb bit does minus the pressure in the mouth. The mechanical hackamore is more severe. The hackamore hasa simple bosal nose peice. A bosal has no shanks. It is more like a halter with a very stiff noseband
