If there was one drivetrain kit in the KOP and you have one drivetrain kit on your robot with identical parts (same part numbers, same quantity), you can claim it on your BOM as "the" KOP drivetrain kit. You're not required to track them by serial number.
If it didn't work that way, the paperwork would be pretty rough on folks who damage a part or find themselves in the "measure twice, cut once, measure again, sigh heavily, reorder" boat.
If you are using any alternate or additional parts (gearboxes, gears, extra metal, different tires, whatever), you'd have to claim them.
