Has anyone ever seen a crystal/oscillator in a 3-pin package that looks like a discrete plastic or SMD transistor? Have you ever heard of a crystal oscillator being integrated inside an SMD multi-function chip that is used in a CDP?

No but I've seen plenty of four-pin SMDs. And since some of those four-pin devices only actually use three of the four pins (output, ground and VDD) using a four-pin package isn't a requirement. When the fourth pin is used, it's typically used as an output enable line.
