Hello,

 Along the process of developing a Revit project,I have imported Cad underlays, and hidden them. In my visibility graphics under Imported objects, I am reminded of imported CAD files that have been hidden and still exist in my file, but I can't find them. Is there a way to easily locate what view these rogue hidden Cad files are in so I can delete them?

Couple of things may help here...

If you hid them by element ro category the "Reveal Hidden Elements" lightbulb should show them up.   Select the CAD plan, then right click and choose "Select all Instances".  Then delete them.

 

You may have linked them in.  In this case go to the File Menu and then to "Manage Links" where you will be able to see the links and remove them.

 

Good Luck

You might just look in the VG of the views and turn them on there.  NOTE:  They may still be hidden by model elements so you may need to turn off the model in VG to find them.
