CH,
Ideally you should go with the birth certificate, however, since the DOB on that is different than the passport, you'd be better off showing alternative evidence in the form of DL and notarised copy of your passport.
The HSMP approval letter specifies the DOB, so even in a scenario that you get initial approval....you might get stuck during the EC process since the Passport and HSMP approval would have different DOBs.
Go for other forms of evidence of age...just think of a credible justification for not submitting your original birth certificate in case you want to mention that in your covering letter.
Regards,
