I have never found a way to get smart to report what specific sectors is pending. You can do a smartctl -l long against the device and generally it will stop when it hits that sector. Also usually the errors are found by linux doing a read against it, so there should be error messages on the reads in the messages file when it happened, that is usually what I use to determine what sectors are getting the error.
