I can’t youtube at work, but I’m betting if you search for Yes, Going for the One, Parallels, or Don’t Kill The Whale, you might get lucky. I saw those tours, and he was using it then. He was not using Hammonds then, or after. But if you look for the ABWH clips on Youtube, he was using a Hammond console….no leslie.

Is there clip you may know of showing Rick playing a Birotron? Also when you saw him did he play a Hammond? I have yet to see a clip of him playing a B3 or the like. But a phenomenal player in his octopus style.

No, but I've seen it on stage: This was Rick Wakeman's company believe it or not (or he was a major shareholder, can't remember), but he wanted something to replace the Mellotron, and this was the answer. He used them on the Going For The One Tour, and may have still used them on Tormato, but I think he had already replaced them with Polymoogs.
