Any 2 XML's will work. but the script should be in a generic way that
should be able to compare.

That's a tall order, a generic difference app. There are XML difference
utilities around, XmlDiff for example, but I doubt they are something one
could develop quickly as a favour.
You maybe lucky however

On top being a tall order, in real world use a generic xml difference tool
just doesn't have an application. I can't think why anyone would want one.

OTH, building some kind of 'diff gram' from two chunks of XML that follow
the same schema and have known semantic rules that can be used to determine
new, updated and deleted content might be more useful and achievable.
