Dear Maaike,
sounds like it was a wild-barnacles chase, but if you did not find anything
in PL 216-217 (and I presume that you included Rainer of Pomposa's
collection of the decretals into your electronic search, because they
contain materials not recorded in the registers), you might try the
critical edition _Die Register Innocenz' III._ (ed. Leo Santifaller et al.)
published in the series _Publikationen der Abteilung fu"r Historische
Studien des O"sterreichischen Kulturinstituts in Rom_, an edition with good
bibliography and annotations. There is also, although not promising for the
passage in question, Friedrich Kempf (ed.), _Regestum Innocentii III papae
super negotio Romani imperii_, Roma: Pontificia Universita' Gregoriana,
1947 (= Miscellanea Historiae Pontificiae, XII, 21).
