So on identification of the controller for the headlight adjuster, the European market NSX has four controls on the centre console, behind the gear lever and adjacent to the base of the handbrake.
Three of them are buttons - front fog lights, rear fog light, and headlight washer spray.
The fourth is a rotary knob, which pops up when pushed and can then rotate between the three positions, labelled 0 (intended to be the standard), and then 1 and 2 for downwards tilt to compensate for increasing luggage load in the boot. It will latch down once pushed down a second time.
In the photo linked below, that knob is in the popped up position, available to adjust the headlight aim. When depressed it sits almost flush with the surrounding panel.

If I recall the rule correctly, electrical headlight height adjusters, if fitted, must work in order to pass an MOT. As the height adjust knob is subtle and testers may not recognise it, I'd consider that it's rather more likely to fail the MOT for an incorrect headlight pattern.
If the manual mechanism can be freed up and the motor disconnected, an appropriate headlight pattern may be achievable.
