You can install different versions of Python next to each other,
without breaking anything. You can have Python 2.7 in C:\Python27 and
Python 3.4 in C:\Python34. As a matter of fact, the installers already
do this, so you have to actively change things to mess up.

You don't have to get the Blender sources in order to just install
some Python packages. Just install them as normal for your system,
then copy them into Blender's own Python directory.

It probably won't matter whether you install 3.4.0 or 3.4.2, but if
you want to be 100% sure, pick the one that's used by the version of
Blender you're using.
