Then I'm at a loss as even with a well crafted Find operation, or using
the Transaction Report as Chris suggested, you can't end up with a list
that doesn't include transactions where no fee was paid by you. Only
*you* know if a split needs to be added for that fee. How do you expect
GnuCash to magically know?
At best, you can find/report all transactions that have a split
involving the PayPal asset account that don't also involve the Fee
expense account. (which is what you initially asked for)
If this is strictly a case of items you are selling (not buying) then
further restrict your Find results or Report to filter on Debits only to
the PayPal asset account. (A Find can do this, not certain of reports)
Any Credits to that account should be when you spend rather than
receive. (assuming you entered all transactions correctly)
If the Report path is the easiest or only method that works, and you
can't filter out Credits to that asset account, you should at least be
able to sort by debit/credit, or in an absolute worst case, show the
debits and credits splits individually and then you can go over it with
a fine comb to pick out which transactions to adjust.

Unfortunately that's a bit difficult, as a lot of times I buy things with
PayPal, so there's an entry in the PayPal account where no fees need to be
paid, as the seller pays the fees, not the buyer. So not every transaction in
the PayPal account needs 3 splits - most need 2.
