identify as sb/sth 这个结构中,identify可以及物,也可以不及物。例如the free dictionary 关于identify as词条的释义和例句:

identify as (someone or something)

To classify or label someone or oneself as something. A noun or pronoun can be used between "identify" and "as."

The guy on the security camera isn't a criminal after all—someone in the next block identified him as one of their neighbors.

If you don't identify yourself as a member of this community, I'm going to call the police!

Growing up, I always thought I was straight, but now I identify as bisexual.

所以你的句子中的identified为过去式,是谓语动词的一般过去时。不是过去分词。没有必要改为were identified, 虽然改了也是正确的。

是过去分词,identify是及物动词。

作者可能是想写成省略句:

Church rolls suggest there were 1.1m Mormons in Brazil in 2010, but (there were //承前省略)only about 227,000 Brazilians identified as Mormon in the census the same year.

也可能漏写了were:

Church rolls suggest there were 1.1m Mormons in Brazil in 2010, but only about 227,000 Brazilians (were)  identified as Mormon in the census the same year.

这里是在对比两个数据,用并列句更好,用独立主格结构效果差一些。独立主格结构多用于细节描写,多见于文学描写。

应该是过去分词,前面漏印了were.  这里的identify是及物动词。如果作者想用独立主格结构,那就不应该用but.
