Parts 1 and 2.

Not released on DVD due to a suspected underage performer.
I have both VHS and am in the process of getting them transferred
to disc.

The iafd write-ups are AFAICT broadly correct.

The assumption is that it was Natacha who was the underage
performer but there is a counter-theory that it was 'Gyanty', a
local who appeared only on the VHS boxcover, that was the problem.
It's certainly hard to see why the Balinese police, who apparently
severely hassled Woodman et al., would have been all that bothered
about some 'foreign girl'....
of course, the problems with the Balinese authorities may only have
been coincidental to any subsequent ones with Natacha.

I think you are right: the problem was with a local girl. And Woodman was really "severely hassled". That's why Private did pay huge sums in loco, let alone their trying to protect their reputation (and the one of their "prot?g?") at the time, by launching a serious campaign of withdrawal of the original VHSs.
