MG MGA - Heritage Certificate

If I apply for a heritage certificate quoting the MGA car/vin number will it verify the body number if not given by me. I suspect the answer is no, as am I correct in saying body numbers and engine numbers were never recorded against individual cars.
On the application form body and engine number searches are an additional fee. But this will just confirm the numbers given by me are approx the correct date. Correct?
