That's what the chart at
http://www.zetatalk.com/theword/tword03h.htm
does! It's a SkyMap image encompasing Orion, Gemini, Taurus, and Aries. The RA and Dec are indicated. The red line with arrow points indicates the path of the 12th Planet, and the dates alongside various points on that path indicate the time frame. Look at the chart, see the section of sky it should be in, and go filter FOR red!

Then why have the southern observatories recently pointed their scopes in that direction? And what was it that the IRAS team discovered just to the lower right of Orion in 1983 that caused them to speculate that they had found a Brown Dwarf? And why was the Hubble recently outfitted with additional infra-red sighting capability?
