There is no central locking box as such on the ph3, it's incorporated into the BSi/immobiliser box which is under the dash. Its behind the cig lighter and hazard switch, in that area.
Ah so they key does fit in but then wont turn? That rules out a snapped blade in there then. It might be that the barrel has just seized up from lack of use if the RCL was working fine for several years, or could be that someone broke in and ruined the barrel, so they swapped if another. Or they just changed the door for whatever reason and didn't bother swapping the barrel with the other one.
The 'normal' key still has the immobiliser chip in it. Though if yours has been disabled, don't worry about it being nicked, you can probably run faster than a 1.9D...
