Unless its not a Turbo forester, in which case the TCM and ECU are one unit.
If its a Turbo then...........
As per the manuals posted in your previous thread on the subject, it should be located near the steering column.....

The relevant page here.....
Have checked the 97 Impreza info and all bar the Turbo are integrated units. The turbo TCM is located next to the steering column..........

This is typical problem of converting Impreza/Forester(or all subaru's) to manual.TCU is connected to ABS,Cruise control etc.
Second options is found Manual ABS unit and replace yours Automatic ABS with Manual ABS,this i've done
And here is master swap list from automatic to manual with parts list
