I happen to believe that the "close the blast door" line was added for the 1997 Special Edition. It always sounded so much cleaner than the rest of the audio - all the other stormtroopers sound muffled, but that one sounds perfectly clear.

I'll stand corrected if that's not the case, but to my ear it sounded new. Ditto for "The tractor beam is coupled to a terminal in seven locations..."

The tractor beam line is on my 1992 "hologram" VHS set, and it sounds exactly the same as the '97 version. It was also on the original 1977 theatrical mono mix. The 'close the blast door' line was also on the the original mono mix.
