iPhone repair for dents: device replacement or enclosure?

When you send your iPhone in for a repair and they gave you a quote because they send you a email saying that they found damage on the iPhone that’s not covered by the warranty. Do they just repair the enclosure if it has dents or do they just replace the entire device

They said that they found some damages that are not covered by AppleCare and they told me that that my service had a Re-quote and I would be paying a $99 fee but when I called, they said that they’re gonna repair just enclosure. The reason why we sent my iPhone off for a repair was because of a repeat issue for my iPhone 17 Pro Max main logic board failure. but when I called Apple, they said they’re just gonna replace just the entire frame. I’m like Apple. It doesn’t say that in the policy.
