C3D-0042 · READ-ONLY: find the SEWER EASEMENT annotation in paper space [FIND-SSE-PS] done

Not in model space (0 of 12798). Searches every block table record - all layouts and block definitions - for the 36239.95 / SEWER EASEMENT text and reports its owning record, layer, position and height. No changes.
