Unless it was from the LA plant, then it was usually nowhere in the car…

Build sheets wouldn't be between the foam and the cover. (to do that the seat would have needed to be taken apart)
They were usually placed between the springs and the foam either on the front seat or the rear seat,
Other locations are taped to the top of the glove box and some have said they have seen them under the carpet or tucked into the headliner.

My experience is the opposite, cars made at the LA plant rarely seem to have build sheets.
The seats were among the last things installed into the interior on the assembly line, so it makes sense the build sheet is often tucked into one of the seats.

Not sure how that’s opposite….

I found a sheet in the back seat bottom of my LA built '70 BH, B5/B5 .... for another BH about a hundred #s off mine in W1/B5 (sounds like a cool combination with a white exterior and bright blue interior). Since they are both Slant six cars it's doubtful that anybody's looking for the sheet, but I sent it to Barry Washington anyways.

Agree on W1/B5,

I have a 74 charger that had it's broadcast sheet between the foam and the mesh netting. This would have been installed there before the foam was installed on the springs. Was definitely not in the springs.
I had to cut the netting to retrieve the 100 pieces that the broadcast sheet had deteriorated into. By being stuck between the two, every time someone would sit on the seat it would rip the sheet. So it turned into many many pieces.

Across mopar, not necessarily just Hamtramck plant, I have seen sheets under carpet, in headliner, behind glove box, in all seat springs, behind netting against foam, under the asphalt vibration mat on the top of the fuel tank.
I've seen the sheets screwed down to the floor of the cars so they didn't disappear down the assembly line. I've seen several pieces in this location represented by only a small piece that is still screwed to the floor after the line workers pulled the sheet up and threw it away.
On another note, I've only ever seen a hand full of "BUILD SHEET"s found in any of the cars. Build sheets are quite different than broadcast sheets and are a thousand times more rare than broadcast sheets.

I’ve also seen where they’ve been taped to the bumper bracket and then got sandwiched between the bumper and the bracket.

Wow! That's a new one on me. Any pics by chance?
Would love to capture that.
