I was in a very similar position having completed my EASA skills tests in April 2021. I had a similar email from the CAA which requested the UK CAA skills test reports. I was able to ask my examiners to fill these out by transferring the information from the EASA form to the UK form.
I think the main caveats being the process has to have been started within 6 months of the earliest skills test and whether the CAA are in a position to waive the prior notification requirement for the skills tests. They did this for me based on confusing surrounding Brexit and to my knowledge I believe they are still allowing for this.
I was looking at resitting the skills tests for a UK licence, which would have cost upwards of £15k due extra training requirements etc. In the end it was just a case of renewing my UK medical, submitting the paperwork and paying the licence application fees. Definitely worth getting in touch with your examiners and asking the question.
