Hey im just wondering if anyone can help me with the identification of my car and can verify what everything means

The compliance plate says

Model: LX8VD69 Does this mean that the car is an LX SL/R?
Body No: 529066M What does this mean?
Trim: 1914-158 What does this mean?
Paint: 568-17778 Is this Aquarius?
Eng: L20 What does this mean?

The plate in the middle of the top part of the engine bay says:

8D69LF J5 29066X What does this mean?

The number stamped on the opposite side of my battery says:

ALX012336M What does this mean?


Thanks :)
