Birth index look-up request

Does anyone on this list have easy access to the Isle of Man birth index for the year 1904?

If so, I'd really appreciate a look-up for Ernest Sefton Bells, born Dec. 9, 1904. His mother, Margaret Ann (nee Pass) went to Birkenhead to teach, and eventually married. Her husband emigrated to Canada to claim land, leaving her behind. She was pregnant at the time.

I have not been able to find a birth record for Ernest Sefton Bells in England. It was suggested to me that perhaps Margaret, pregnant and alone, went back to her mother's house in IoM, and had the baby there.

Thanks.
