Is there a log to help identify which datastore a deleted VM was on?

vSphere version 6.7.0.50000

Hi, 

I need to restore a VM that i deleted from disk. We backup all of our datastores via storage array snapshots so i know the backup is there but I don't know which datastore the VM used to be on. Unless there's some way of telling which datastore the VM used to be on I may have to restore ~30 snapshots and mount each of them to look inside and see if the VM is there.

I was hoping maybe there's a log that shows datastore activity (i.e a deletion event). 

Thanks
