Are the extcap expected to be under build/run/extcap on macOS or elsewhere?

I guess I found the answer myself. tshark -G folders on travis builds give

/Users/travis/build/crondaemon/wireshark/build/run/Wireshark.app/Contents/MacOS/extcap

Yes, on macOS, *shark ultimately looks inside the app bundle for plugins/data files/etc.

Is there a way to get this single path from tshark's command line?

Pipe tshark -G to

        sed -n 's/Extcap path://p'
