I believe the dual battery set up is standard on gas vans with rear A/C which mine has.

The 2005 wiring diagram doesn't show the 2nd battery being standard with rear AC.
I found my mistake. I mistook the battery bracket that the relay is mounted to as the Aux Battery bracket, when it is the primary battery bracket it is mounted to. The 2nd battery for a gas engine is on the frame rail beneath the side door. The relay is on the under the main battery on the side of the battery bracket.
If you follow the battery cable carefully from the aux battery towards the main battery, you will probably find the relay below the main battery, on the narrow dimension of the battery.
