As content, you can use the message ID. As actual data stored, you can use the group name and article number.

Well, if you have the article number and group name, it's very easy to get the articles with the built-in Gnus functions. With the message ID only, you could use the gnus-registry to remember the group and number of the article, and then retrieve them appropriately. Hope that helps...

With `nnml', `nnmaildir', `nnmbox', and `nnbabyl', retrieving an article by Message-ID using `gnus-refer-article-method' is also possible.

I'm sorry but I still don't see neither the canonical way to get the Message-ID nor the way to get the message from its ID. It'd be great if it worked for both mails and newgroups but mails alone would be ok.
