You may be talking about a TO99 there is one in the ref-packages library.

When making queries like this you should identify the component and obtain
the datasheet. Confirm from the datasheet the exact package and its
dimensions and then go looking for that package. Do that by attampting an
ADD from the board only and search for the package.

Hi Warren,

thanks for the clarification. I'veincluded the component its a Custom LED and now I have the dimensions. My problem is that I cannot find which library has the component? It is an 8 leg LED under the datasheet packaged is left blank so I am not sure where to look. Thanks for the help!

If you can't find the device you have to construct it yourself.
IMO the TO99 case has the same measures as the TO5, so you could use the
TO99 case which can be found in the ref-packages.lbr . Copy that package
into your own library BUT OBSERVE the TO99 has the indicator on pin 8
while your datasheet shows the lED indicator on pin 1. So you have to
rename the numbers to fit.
