Its orifice, as in small hole.
On most jeeps its installed about 4 to 6 inches after the point where the line leaves the condenser. Somewhere roughly right beside the radiator tucked near the rad bulkhead, passenger side below the battery. If you look carefully at the line there you will see several dimples. It is captured between the dimples in the line.

The orifice tube is "built-in" into the liquid line. The liquid line is the metal tube between the condenser and evaporator. Each end of the liquid line has a "quick connect" connector. The liquid line is what gets replaced.
