This quest is not bugged anymore. It has been hotfixed. If you are still having troubles locating the NPC, read the quest description again.
I was scouting up along the ruins earlier, and I spotted somethin' innerestin' up on the highest rise.
I found him, just slightly outside of the marked area, at 58,71.
Hope this helped.

Description

Why hullo there! Have ya ever seen tha like o' these statues? Fascinatin'! I was scouting up along the ruins earlier, and I spotted somethin' innerestin' up on the highest rise. I couldn't get close enough, but I think it might be one o' these mogu statues, 'cept it was movin'! I can't get through all those nasty blood elves, but you look like you could. Would you mind going up there and bringing me back anything of interest?
