Thank you so much for your help. I am assuming the numbers in the middle are the engine numbers, correct?

Sido or serial number yes. It may or may not match the engine. Early Cortina's were all over the place with numbering and vin plate variations and information.
Sounds like an interesting car, you don't see may in that colour nor bucket seats and autos.
