Yes, someone knows where it is.

It is made of inaccessium, a rare metal that can only be found about 
halfway up on the right side of the gearbox case.  It can sometimes  
be seen but not accessed from underneath the car.  Access to 
inaccessium is best obtained from inside the car, after removal of 
the tranny cover (and carpets and vertical dash support and various 
inner trim bits).
