Actually, there is - "frame".

And

        frame contains "blablabla"

or

        frame contains 00:40:3f

(rather than 00403f, if you're searching for a byte with the value hex 
00, followed by a byte with the value hex 40, followed by a byte with 
the value hex 3f) will match regardless of whether the frames are 
Ethernet frames or not.

Note, however, that matches a link-layer frame, so if you're looking 
for, for example, an HTTP request or reply containing the string 
"foobar", that won't match an HTTP request in which one TCP segment ends 
with "foo" and the next TCP segment begins with "bar".  In that case, 
you'd need to search for

        http contains "method"

which *will*, as far as I know, match that.
