I don't know what version of SCO Xenix you have.  Mine has a
volume, "User's Reference" (C) (M) (F).  There is a tab for the
(F) section that says "File Formats."  There is an index for this
section that says "TAR (F)."  Looking at this section gives the
TAR header.

My version of SCO Xenix also has a permuted index.  This should
give you the same search path that I've given.
