Dude, you're unbelievably paranoid. It's not hidden in firmware, or in a special section of the HD. It's in the OS, most likely hidden but in the same area as the rest of the OS. Initialization would destroy it.
Besides, it's only going to be installed on the computer if it was issued to you by someone with a reason to remotely activate the webcam. The chance of a desktop (especially an older model without a built-in iSight) is next to none.
