MSC is correct. The AOS applications/petitions are sent to the National Benefits Center. Here is a notice from the USCUS:

What is the National Benefits Center?

The National Benefits Center was originally created as the Missouri Service

Center (MSC), which was set up to process applications associated with the LIFE

Act. On April 16, 2003, USCIS Director Aguirre approved the transition of the

Missouri Service Center (MSC) into the National Benefits Center (NBC), which

greatly expanded the scope of the Center’s operations. The NBC was primarily

established to serve as the hub and conduit for all USCIS field offices by

completing pre-interview processing of Forms generally requiring an interview.

However, evidence of our origin remains, as all Forms receipted by the NBC still

bear the receipt number prefix of “MSC.”
