I think it is just like
Dadi Ma says Wahguru
Nani ma says Waheguru
for those who dont know punjabi- dadi ma is- dad's mother, nani ma is mom's mother

i've never heard of any difference... is there a difference between Gurdwara and Gurudwara?
is there a difference in the spelling when written in gurmukhi, or is it a matter of transliteration?

Some grammar... Gur is the oblique form of Guru, and the oblique is also used as possessive, so Gurbani means Guru's bani.
So the correct way to write it is Gurbani, not Gurubani.
Hope this made some sense.

It's the same difference as i wrote above. And it's also the way it's spelt in gurmukhi.

singh is king ji
It is Gurbani -- and Sara has given the linguistic explanation for this. Why not post an example of where you saw this with the surrounding context so we can take a look and see what might be going on? I sounds to me as if someone did not understand the idea of the oblique form as Sara explained.
I had a second thought. The person may be trying to say Guru's Bania -- but unsure of the 's rule. This is very hard when learning English.

The fact that the transcendental Brahm is the prefect Brahm and the Guru is God, is only identified by a gurmukh, the Guru-orientated one.
