I am trying to complete this quest during the dragonflight pre-event (Oct 25).
The recipes do not show up anywhere in the recipe list.
I've submitted a ticket but i suspect this is a bug with the new profession interface.
you pick up the test vial out of a crate on the floor by the alchemist.

Description
Would you mind helping me out with something, {name}? <Elric motions you over to him.> You see, I have this recipe that, well, I only have half of currently. I've been trying to remember the other half but just can't seem to recall it. My EX-partner tore the recipe and ran off with the other half over a disagreement we were having. But the stone it makes is invaluable. How about you grab some vials and start mixing the ingredients on this list. Perhaps together we can figure this out.
