as drgeorgie says externship seems to be the best one.
If US lors can come from a teaching hospital even better.
If you also participate in research you'll get contacts for rotations too. If you don't have research but you can submit something for publication, like a case report it will be a good idea.
Try to feel all the requirements for your application.

Externship allows HANDs-ON, internship does not. Externship will look better on CV, but observership does still count...so either-or is good.
Research, US LORs, etc. are all bonuses that pad your stats.
