V5 says 1.4SRI even though its not an SRI and never had a 1.4 engine in it
Im so confused! 
the engine you currently have in the car is not the engine GMC fitted, the engine they fitted was an astra one as i saw it when i was down with Dave (LuckyB) getting his car modded from them. your engine must have been put in afterwards.

the engine in the astra has a different inlet manifold which has a curve on it (the silver inlet that goes over the top of engine) this is the one i saw when we were down now you have the proper corsa 1.6 16v engine in it  you'll be able to check it is a 1.6 by the code on the front of the gearbox edge where it joins the engine behind the radiator
