the original C64 clock generator circuit (is) a regular PLL (so, not
"a kind"), the reference divider circuit is inside the VIC-II IC which
is part of the PLL.
The MOS8701 is a divider/digital delay synthesizer and doesn't use the
VIC-II divider (but the divider it's still needed to generate the
6510's clock).
Just for the record.
