Hi, I searched but found no explanation, I’m afraid I might not be using the
right words.

When I search using a part-number from the inventory (in the back of a lego instruction
booklet) bricklink gives me the right part in the right colour. So bricklink
knows those numbers. But on that page, where is that same number? For example:
if I select a specific in a specific colour, where (on the bricklink page for
that brick&colour) can I find the number that would be used in an inventory (as
it would appear in the back of an instruction book)?

Click on the "color images" link for any part and then scroll down to the list
of Part Color Codes.
