Declaration of Authenticity & Word Count Limit

Recently I have sent my OBU project. However, I forgot to add declaration of authenticity on cover page of the project. Initially, I thought that writing the ethics paragraph in part 1 would be enough. However, now I know that I was careless and that it is compulsory to add it to cover page. I have sent the email at [email protected] about this. Can somebody tells me whether this would result in my project failure or result being with held? I also have concern for my word count. The word count function says its 7481 words. But I am getting conflicting information as to whether text in excel graphs pasted to research project, like GP margin title in graph can count towards the word count limit. The word count function didn't consider graph & its text in word counting. Can somebody also explained this to me? I would appreciate any information regarding these problems.
