Default Tank sticker

Is there anyway I can see if I have a tank sticker before I pull the tank?

Open the gas lid, peel back the rubber bladder and shine a bright flashlight in there. You may be able to see it.

Of course it depends on what year you have but I got at my 74 by removing the rear bumper cover. It was off to the left side, but after 35+ years and 90,000 miles there wasn't much left of it. Now I don't what's easier, dropping the tank or removing the bumper cover.
