737 Engine Fire checklist

What are we supposed to call for when we get an engine fire on the 737?
I assume this also applies to all Boeing types.
My present company expects me to ask for " Engine fire or engine severe damage or separation" checklist.
I think this is wrong.
Apart from the fact that the fire will have burned out by the time I've finished calling for the checklist, the quick action index at the front of the QRH lists two separate drills. One is the "Engine Fire" drill, and the other is the "Engine Severe Damage or Separation" drill. Both lead to the same set of actions.
I know it sounds a bit pedantic, but that's where we are with SOPs these days.
What does the panel think?
