Easily overlooked one at /way 80.58 60.62. I hate this quest so far, find the first 7 in two minutes, spend 10-15 minutes looking for that last one. :D
As mentioned by izraelv, they can be found around The Outflow

What to do
Description
Once every week, Mechagon expels a lot of excess oils through the outflow. That's why the place is a toxic mess! Today they expelled a batch of Golden Cogpaste. The stuff is amazing! I make air fresheners out of it. Makes any mount smell like it's brand new! Check all the pipes in the outflow, and see if you can collect some of this paste.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the quest's prerequisites.
- Welcome to the Resistance
Life in the Rustbolt Resistance is not easy, <name>. But it is yours. We will not order you around or force you to fight. Mechagon is a land of endless opportunities, and you may chase whichever opportunities you see fit.
- Ready to Rumble
We're going to need a new Sixteen-Servo-Actuator if we're going to fix the controls on this thing. Bondo's gang at the yard probably has one, but they usually aren't too helpful. Talk to Bondo, see if you can get us one.
