Lunar Orbiter 5 captured Rima Bode II near craters Bode C and E, on Frames 120, 121, 122, and 123. Frames 121 to 123 include crater Marco Polo C. Note that Rima Bode II is not named that way on chart 33 of Antonin Rukl's Atlas of the Moon (there's no name at all). The Times Atlas of the Moon does.

Rima Bode II Vent
Located 13° North/ 4° West, on the eastern part of Sinus Aestuum, very near Rima Bode II, see Lunar Orbiter 5 frames LO5-120 med, 121 med, 122 med, and 123 med.
Of those four, LO5-122-h2 shows a close-up of the vent itself (warning: KING-SIZE scan!).

Antonin Rukl depicted this vent on chart 33 of his atlas (although he didn't add the name Rima Bode II).
The Times Atlas of the Moon shows it on chart 41 (but... the "Bode" of Rima Bode II was printed on it).
Investigations of the LRO's extreme close up reveals a very small high-albedo ray craterlet on the western part of its southern inner slope (of this vent), and I wonder if something of it could be observed during Full Moon, perhaps through powerful telescopes.
