Children are not stolen by the CPS, they remove the children in order to be safe or when in need of a family. And yes, at 18 he can seek for you and you can seek for him. I would contact his parents first though to find out how he feels about it and how much he knows. If he was very young he might not remember anything and you don't know how much his parents have told him or how much they knew about his former family. It might backfire if you contact him directly.
