Please tell us what exactly you want to do? Search for all raster effects that have been applied?

When you go from the Preview mode to the Outline mode through View>Preview (Command (Mac)/Control (PC)-Y) any linework you see is vector. Any empty boxes you see contain a raster effect or a linked or embedded image.

You can check window > links for any embedded or linked images but there is no way to tell for sure if a piece of art was originally traced from a bitmap if the bitmap has been deleted. 

 

If there are lots of random nodes on the paths then it was probably not drawn or traced by a human being but it could be a piece of art that was auto-traced... not necesarrily in that particular file. 

 

You can try "image trace" & "live paint" under "object". If "release is clickable the original image may be recoverable.
