Default Orifice tube on a 1968?

Does a C-60 factory system use an orifice tube in 68?
I can't find one listed on any vendor sites for 68.
It is a factory AC set up
Thanks,
Marshal

'68 GM systems all used expansion valves.

Thanks Mel and Lars
I know where the expansion valve is.
Couldn't find that pesky orifice now I know why
Happy Thanksgiving everyone
