Try Reports>Inventory>Hardware>Detailed hardware. Filter the input selection to choose only your 6500 switches and then run the job with a one-time immediate schedule.
I don't have a chassis in my lab to check on but I believe the output should have the model and serial number of all your 6500 chassis modules. From there you can easily sort the output to list all of your ACE modules.
If it's something you need to do frequently, you can further create a custom report as described here.

Not sure about hardware report because I don't normally use it, but I know the detailed device report will give you the info you need. This is the one I normally use.
RME>reports>report generator, select inventory and detailed device report, then filter on 6500s. If you have a lot of 6500s it will be a large report because it does give a lot of detail, but you'll see which device, which slot, and the serial number of the ACE(s) in question.
