FYI, its much easier to go west past the crashsite and enter from the west through the little door rather than try and fight your way into the part thats broken open.
If you do it this way you only have to kill a couple blood elves, go through the door, turn left and hes right there.
Make sure you pick up the quest from the book next to him.

Description
Do you think often of your family, {name}? There were a number of families aboard the Exodar, but I've heard of very few being reunited. I, myself, am looking for traces of my husband Galaen, who was a technician in the Cryo-Core. The wreckage of it is located to the west, and it's swarming with blood elves! I must find out what became of Galaen! Even news of his death is better than never knowing. My husband will be wearing a pendant identical to my own; they were a gift from my sister.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Cryo-Core
We have others pursuing leads on the sun portals, <name>. I need you to focus on the task at hand. Boros has received new reports of another crash site. What we've since discovered is that the crash site is actually the Exodar's cryo-core.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Galaen's Fate
You have no means of identifying the corpse as Galaen with the information Morae gave you, but the clothing appears to have been torn in search of valuables. The blood elves in the area would've claimed anything of value from the wreckage, including Galaen's jeweled amulet.
