Does anyone know where to look and what to look for? Also, newly-emerging proto life would most likely be eaten by bacteria.
Ahh, no, I'm not lettin' ya skate on that. I'm holding your rhetorical feet to the fire :P
We'd surely see EVIDENCE of this going on...and we don't. We have microsopes, dontchaknow. Didn'tchaknow?
Scientists have abiogenesis down so pat, with very detailed explanations about "what must have happened," that you can't change course 180 degrees and claim we don't know what to look for. We have a pretty good idea, and the microscopes with which to do it.
Besides, we'd have "bumped into" the process and discovered bigger things eatin' littler things by now.
Rather telling that we haven't. :P

You are totally full of it. Organic molecules are so efficiently scavenged by soil and water microflora, that newly happening abiogenesis would never have a chance. Dontchknow. Get with the program.
VA is spot on.
