A correction to my earlier list. I have accidentally excluded forms with 
an aleph or ayin in them. The more correct regular expression is 
"\bL:/*[A-Z$&#+\(\)]F[A-Z$&#+\(\)]F\d*[A-GI-XZ$&#+\(\)][\d]*[\s\?\[\]]", 
and from this I get 117 references:

Note that these are only forms with sheva under the lamed, and I have 
excluded forms with prefixed vav.
