All Tri-power cars had a Vaccume can for the Tri-power. It can also be used for the vaccume trunk release. Does the car have it?

Factory tripower cars 64 and older were all vacuum operated. 65-66 automatics also. Thus the "reserve" can. It could also be for power "vacuum" operated door locks and I believe 1966 Big Pontiac with ATC air conditioning.

My 64 tripower GP was converted from vacuum operated to mechanical linkage many years before I bought it. When I bought it, the vacuum operated trunk release used a late model looking plastic container as a vacuum reserve. I don't think this is the correct type vacuum reserve container. It was mounted on the inner fender just behind the headlights on the passenger side of the car. I replaced it with a coffee can type container found in a junkyard. Would this container be the correct type and also be in the correct location? Any information appreciated.
