While poking around in the disk image I was provided, I stumbled upon a serial number embedded just beyond the MBR of the internal disk.

sudo dd if=kobo.img of=serialnumber.bin bs=512 count=1 skip=1

Not that it would be set in stone, if you were really worried i'm sure it wouldn't hurt to alter it using DD as well.
