I've got a bunch of work from another design house and I'm doing this the hard way over and over detailing parts in drafting.

In the thread above, there is some code that allows the user to select a component in a drafting view then it reads a specific attribute from the component and prompts for a note location. A label is created (a note with a leader) referencing the attribute value. I think that it is the closest journal I have to what you are asking for.
