In what part of the whale the ambergris came from?

Ambergris is only produced by sperm whales. It's a secretion from the intestines, and may be formed to ease the passage of hard objects through the digestive system (giant squid beaks have been found embedded in Ambergris).Ambergris is usually found on coastal beaches or floating on the sea after being passed as fecal matter or vomited (if a mass is too large to pass through the intestines). It may also be found in the abdomens of dead specimens (as described in Moby Dick).Historically, Ambergris has been used as a perfume base, but in the 1970s t was banned from use in many countries, including the United States, because of its origin within a vulnerable whale species.
