737 Fire Drill

Hi there, during a Sim. session. After takeoff there was a fire alarm on the left engine with fire warning switch light on, engine overheat light on, master fire warning lights on but…, NO fire bell. The crew carried on the Engine Fire Recall items and NNC, the engine was subsequently shutdown. The instructor later remarked that there was no need to carry on the fire drill since a visual fire alarm, with no bell should be disregarded. Can anyone clarify this, and if possible bring some technical data about it.
By and thanks.
