I can not think of any car that has tow hook eyes in them, Most cars just have the small slots used as hold downs when the car is shipped on the truck. When I ran a flat bed I would just put my hook around the control are because it was the only thing low enough so the cable would not hurt the lower valance. Modern tow truck just pick up the front wheels. If you are trying to flat tow a 1980 you may have to remove the nose pc. Maybe you could wrap a chain around the cross member. the 78-81 is going to be tuff to flat tow. Can you rent a Uhaul dolley?

There should be 2 of them on the front brush guard...oh wait, it's not a Jeep. lol
As Gorn said, you wrap around a control arm. The Camaro isn't designed for easy access front towing.

Guess so...
Although I did tow it before started the restoration process and as I remember it was too low and took us a lot of effort to try rolling the car with pieces of wood etc.
Thank you for the answers
It's my first resto project and as long for the resto process. trying collect as much info about the car for each and each screw or bolt I see and not sure about what it does or why it's there.
