If it has a motorsport log book and the accident was deemed to have impacted in on the cage structure the scruitineers would have made a note in the log book on the day.
Front and rear panel damage and crumple zones very rarely affect a caged shell bad enough for it to be written off.
Sorry to read about it though Gary/Christian.
