It can't hurt to list info in as many places as possible and to register on all the adoption reunion registries (here, Soundex/ISRR and various other locations).
Your friend can go back to the adoption agency and talk to a social worker there that will help him to put a letter in his son's file and/or have him fill out a consent for contact form. He could also try to locate the birth mother since his son will most likely find her first if he is searching.
For more specific search tips, contact Colleen Buckner here on the Experts Search Board.
I wish you all the best as you help your friend make contact with his son.
