I don't see anything that will give you the name of the file in cache,
but maybe browsing thru all the image files in cache would be close
enuf?  Something along the lines of

find $SEAMONKEYCACHEDIR -type f -exec file '{}' \; |\
  grep PNG | cut -d: -f1 |\
  awk '{ cmd="imageviewer " $0; print "" | cmd ; close(cmd)}'

where $SEAMONKEYCACHEDIR is the name of the SM top level cache
directory & "imageviewer" is the name of your image viewer program ?
