MSc, MA, MEng, MPhil etc. Are all considered masters level qualifications. A masters degree in any subject would not be considered an MPhil. The correct styling would be given in the name of your degree.
For example
MSc Forensic Science, is not the same as:
MA Forensic Science
MPhil is typically awarded to someone who is doing a PhD and either drops out or fails to meet the standards required for the award of a PhD. Most PhD candidates are enrolled as MPhil students for this purpose until their 2nd year in.
An MPhil also denotes that th student completed their masters degree by extended independent research.
