First passport - birth certificate number?

Hi everyone, I'm trying to apply for a passport for my baby but I'm stuck and I'm struggling to tell which is the correct certificate number on his birth certificate. The passport form asks for:
"Certificate number
This is usually a 7 digit number towards the bottom left of the certificate

On his birth certificate there is a 9 digit system number at the bottom left or at the top right there are 3 letters followed by 6 digits. Can anyone confirm which one I should use? I'm confused as according to Google the certificate number should be at the top but the online form says bottom left?

Thanks!

It's normally the number at the top for verification
