I've never heard of anyone checking if the "numbers match" on anything but a classic car. I guarantee an accord will never have that status. Nobody cares with a normal car, and any future buyer probably wouldn't even know if you didn't tell them.
Why would you walk away from a car that had an engine dealer- replaced so early? The only reason that I could think of would be that it could indicate a driver who abuses the car. I really doubt that any amount of abuse could kill a modern engine that quickly though. It would obviously be due to a manufacturing error.
I think that you're due a new engine, but the engine's failure had nothing to do with the rest of the car.
