Hi Sara, as far as I'm aware, there is no such thing as mac address for a mother board or usb ports. Mother board usually have a serial number, you could find it with dmidecode. more usb information you could find with lsusb and lspci commands. for firewire I'm not so sure, but I assume that if you have the hardware, try searching for packages with 1394 name in them.. probably you would find the binaries that shows you firewire device information (also dmesg|grep 1394)
