Have you looked in /var/db ?
This is a new location for receipts as of Snow Leopard...

Hi,
I've been vaguely aware of the receipts left behind by Package Maker's
installers for years. I was under the assumption that third-party
unstallers typically used these receipts for removing apps. However,
recently (after setting up a new machine and running various
installers) I've noticed that I had essentially no receipts left
behind. Have receipts been deprecated? Or do developers just
intentionally not leave the receipts behind to make it harder to
remove there software? Or are there other reasons one might choose not
to leave a receipt behind in the receipts folder? Just curious, and
would appreciate knowing whats going on. Thanks.
