Only difference between the two is that if you present your UK passport for entry, you'll be granted entry clearance for 180 days, assuming your status shown is British Citizen. If you present your Australian passport for entry, you'll be granted entry clearance for 90 days (which you can confirm via Andrew P's link). I gather both satisfy your requirements.

I haven't tried it but have read in several places that the queues can be bad... if there's any time to organise it in advance, it is probably worth doing so. From a bit of Googling, it also appears that you'll need some RMB to pay for the visa.
