Default Orbital elements Comet West 1976 VI

Dear readers,

browsing through the Starry Night Backyard software back to 1976 , I noticed
that there was not comet data from a famous comet called West (1976 VI).
Is there anybody who can provided me with the orbital elements.
I spent a few evenings surfing the internet and several comet software,
without any success.

Thanks

C/West

into the writable text option, select some form of orbit output and
click on "Get ephemerides/HTML page".
