Steve,
Sounds to me that you're saying you have an original, appropriately dated Bill of Sale from Ford or from the Ford dealer that matches your engine number.
If so, I'd say the odds are very high that the frame number matches the Bill of Sale. Or to put it another way, I'd say the odds are very low that the OE Bill of Sale was kept with the incorrect engine all these years rather than with the correct frame/body, i. e., the complete car. The odds would seem to me to be even lower that the OE BoS was re-united with the incorrect engine--either way, your BoS is almost certainly for your car, and by extension also for your CORRECT engine.
As Tom W. says, let the dogs lie--until you have another and much better reason to take the body off.
