I bought my '76 new and have never found it. I understand they have been found in various places, though, but I've been all over the car thru the years..

Hey,Better nothing than finding one and having in crumble in your hands.I have only bits with the rest still there,and so fragile i said the heck with it.Steve
Is there a large hollow metal shroud that bolts in and around the inside of the fuel tank cavity? I know in '77 they started using that metal shroud, and they put the tank stickers on the top of it instead of the tank itself.
Have a look and see if they did the same with that shroud in '78.
Found my Pace Car build sheet tucked into the strut rod bracket held in place by the differential heat shield. There's a few threads about finding it there.

no such luck for me, I've got the whole rear end out of the car now replacing/repainting it all. Its good I pulled the tank, a lot of the body sealer had hardened up and peeled back from the joints.
Maybe, like the Geraldo with Al Capone's safe, a previous owner got there before you and took it.
I think this is the case, since the top of the tank has been painted, looks like somebody had changed the sending unit out. Tried calling the previous owner but he has moved back to FL. maybe in the dash....
