Does anyone have any pictures of it? Where is it supposed to be?

It's above the second belay, on the third pitch, according to Wiessner, who named the route. (Well, he may have named it the Froghead route, but let's not split hairs.)

And no, the belay stances haven't changed.

Bump! I was up there this weekend and I couldn't spot it anywhere. At the top of the 2nd pitch, you are in that little cave. The frog head is somewhere above that? Like...on the ceiling? Or on the face above this belay?

More hallucinogens, you'll see a frog head and all sorts of cool shit.

Close. Protruding. Resembling, allegedly, the underside of a frog's head. Did you climb the third pitch?

Not quite so obvious as the "3 Pines" or "White Pillar" or "Layback" features of their namesake climbs......
