It might be in journalctl(1)'s output.

No.  It's still a package.
https://www.archlinux.org/packages/core/x86_64/linux-headers/

    $ pacman -Slq | egrep '^linux($|-)'
    linux
    linux-api-headers
    linux-atm
    linux-docs
    linux-firmware
    linux-headers
    linux-lts
    linux-lts-docs
    linux-lts-headers
    linux-hardened
    linux-hardened-docs
    linux-hardened-headers
    linux-zen
    linux-zen-docs
    linux-zen-headers
    linux-tools-meta
    $

If your cache no longer has old packages, you can use the online
Archive.
