location of vacuum reservoirs on W116

I've done a couple of thread and topic searches, and while one inquiry was identical to mine, the question was never fully answered. Other than the cruise control vacuum reservoir and the brake booster, are there other vacuum reservoirs on the the W116 SD, and if so, where are they? Thanks

If you pop the carpeted panel you see there you will fiinf it in plain view.

With a flashlight you can see it in the upper gap. Its black flatish and looks like a spillproof ice tray.
