I found the path for "registrymodifications.xcu" to be: /home/[user name]/.libreoffice/3/user.

I also found the file in: /home/[user name]/.config/libreoffice/3/user

However, there is nothing to do with recovery in those files, even though office flags files as needing recovery.

Where else can I look?

"Recovery.xcu" has been integrated in "registrymodifications.xcu"
(since OpenOffice.org 3.3.0, as far as I remember).

You'll find that item in the LibreOffice user profile (s.a.), file "registrymodifications.xcu":

<item oor:path="/org.openoffice.Office.Recovery/AutoSave">
 <prop oor:name="Enabled" oor:op="fuse">
  <value>true</value>
 </prop>
</item>
<item oor:path="/org.openoffice.Office.Recovery/AutoSave">
 <prop oor:name="TimeIntervall" oor:op="fuse">
  <value>10</value>
 </prop>
</item>
<item oor:path="/org.openoffice.Office.Recovery/RecoveryInfo">
 <prop oor:name="Crashed" oor:op="fuse">
  <value>false</value>
 </prop>
</item>
<item oor:path="/org.openoffice.Office.Recovery/RecoveryList">
 <node oor:name="recovery_item_1" oor:op="replace">
[...]

If you want to disable AutoRecovery information every xx Minutes:

Tools → Options → Load/Save → General → Save
☑ Save AutoRecovery information every 15 Minutes [enabled]
☐ Save AutoRecovery information every 15 Minutes [disabled]

<item oor:path="/org.openoffice.Office.Recovery/AutoSave">
 <prop oor:name="Enabled" oor:op="fuse">
  <value>false</value>
 </prop>
</item>
