Unfortunately my Haynes BoL is in the car at the moment (and I'm not sure it covers the HDi) so I'll take a guess. Probably near or part of the thermostat housing?
According to the Haynes BoL it's on the front of the engine on the passenger side in a black plastic container with 4 cap head screws on the top.
On my 307 HDI 110 (2001) it is under the engine cover, centre front of block. about 100mm diameter, black plastic, with a screw-on ring to hold it together. You will see all the fuel pipes connecting to the top. Warning, according to Hanes, it is a b*****d to open, and they wrecked theirs in the process.
