When you say "numerous", or "many", you mean between 4 and 5 million, right? I mean, I watched roughly 1.1 million trucks go by while I was leaning on the foreman's desk at Flint Assembly during the first eight years of my career alone. Roughly one per minute for 8 years.

I will check some representative PAD sheet for various programs to see what I can find.

Absolutely. I thought I had said as much; inside the door trim or on top of the fuel tank= car gets built up around them. Loose papers inside, inspection tickets, stickers, etc, = thrown away.
As I mentioned earlier, I have been in a GM assembly plant within the last few weeks and stood at the final line and watched the workers throw away every loose piece of paper they found in the vehicle.
By the way, I've learned my lesson now: I keep the paperwork from the interesting/significant ones.
