Welcome to the forum.
You are correct 107.023 is a 350SLC. 450SLC would be 107.024. Common for ROTW models to be badged as a different model here in the US.
Very nice. I saw one like that for sale in Tacoma, WA a few months back but couldn't make contact when I was looking for one. Is that where you bought it?
Please complete you profile with model and location.
If it is in North America it is a grey market vehicle as the 107.023 was never sold here by MBUSA. I doubt you will have luck finding history.
Judging by the VIN it most likely has an M116.984 engine which would be Bosch CIS/K-Jet injection. To be sure I would have to see an engine picture or you could find the engine number which is stamped into the top of the block at the rear and below the left cylinder head.
Buy an SLC on your driving style. I know that for me, a road course old lover, I would love to know what a 280 or 300 manual feels like. I'd love to get my hands on one from the SL Shop.... but they don't make one. (an SLC I mean). And an AMG? Forget about it. But anyway, Rowie is correct of course! I didn't see or look of the year so... that could be a solid lifter car... translation: more up keep on adjusting lash but arguably more power capability in some ranges (rpm I mean). Lighter is always better IMHO.
The number is stamped into the block not the head.
