pigment.c:

static void Do_Average_Pigments (...

But 'average' is not a pattern. That's probably also why you did not find
it.   

For patterns look in pattern.c

If you want to create a new pattern, it might be useful to look for all
the changes made with #ifdef for a specific patch like:

#ifdef ObjectPatternPatch

BTW, a tool searching for keywords in all source files is quite practical
for such things.
