Where to find anatomical elements for older generations of characters?

I know that for G7 and G8 you have to buy "Pro Bundles" but I do not see Pro Bundles offered for some of the earlier generations. Some of the posts on this topic reference needing "Morphs++" for some of the older generations but some say you need a Pro Bundle. Which is it? I cannot find "Morphs++" by searching on Daz or even using Google. They just reference of bunch of characters that require the Morphs++. I have noticed that some of the earlier characters do not seem to have Pro Bundles. Specifically, I am concerned with Genesis (1), Genesis 2, and Victorias 4-6. After two hours of searching, I am totally lost. Any guidence on this topic would be greatly appreciated!

Genesis 1 and 2 (and thus Victoria 5 and 6) do have pro bundles available that include anatomical elements. There's also a V4 pro bundle, but that doesn't appear to include anatomical elements, and I don't immediately remember how you get them.
"Morphs++" pack for generation 4 figures was renamed "Shapes++" later, but the original name stuck.

V4 didn't really have "Anatomical elements" as in a separate add-on, only a genital crease morph. It was indeed included in shapes++ pack.
Depending on your intents here you're probably better off looking for 3rd party websites where some artists also sell anatomy extensions for the Genesis characters. See, having the official anatomy extensions is one thing, but getting them blend in with your character(s) is another because not every artist supports it. Many characters do not provide textures that also include the anatomy, so you'd end up with a gray extension anyway.
In the 3rd party section, where the focus is most definitely on erotics, you can come across some seriously impressive attachments. Many products also provide scripts that can copy and apply the textures of the surrounding area of the character, thus making the anatomy blend in no matter what you're using.
If your intent is to have a more realistic model, which also includes their private parts, then that's what I'd do.
Thank you Gordig, Leana, and ShelLuser! That cleared things up. I have used 3rd party products for G8 but not for the older generations. For the most part I am not looking for great detail, I just want them to look "normal" for any nudes.
Sorry, my slow mind finally figured it out. With Genesis 1 & 2 the Pro Bundles are only for Victoria and other characters, not for the Genesis figures themselves.
I have not been able to find a Pro Bundle for Genesis 1 or Genesis 2. Only for characters based on Genesis 1 or 2. I tried the following searches:
https://www.daz3d.com/people-and-wearables-bundles#filter_compat_figures=Genesis&filtered=1
https://www.daz3d.com/catalogsearch/result/?pp=40&q=Pro+bundle&figure[]=genesis_2_female&mature=true&s=score&p=1&guid=
That's always been the case. There weren't pro bundles for the G3, G8 or G9 base figures, either.
