Re: the seat belt finishers, it's possible, I suppose, that you car had already gone through the seat belt fitting assembly line prior to the 4th May change point, but wasn't complete and ready for delivery until the 5th June 2001, I wonder if your VIN number is higher than 218882 - the change point one for the finishers?
Thanks for a really informative piece. Can I add a few nuggets to the story?

I own Vin No ..209690 registered in November 2001 on a '51, but built much earlier in the year. It is Conn SE spec and has seatbelt fixing bolt cover buttons, but the seat headrests are plain non embossed. Hope this of assistance in this ever infuriating search for the truth on 'Drive!

The key has the Rover logo and the Owners Book is in the thin plastic wallet, though whether the original, who knows?
