Cannot find > it. I searched the source for cloud-init in Rawhide, and it doesn't mention PATH at all, except in one example. So I conclude that cloud-init doesn't set PATH at all and must get it from systemd. (I can't find out what environment systemd sets up by default either ... Ask Lennart?) IMHO there's probably a case for filing a bug with upstream cloud-init and getting them to drop something like: Environment=PATH=[some predictable path] into cloud-init-0.7.2/systemd/cloud-*.service.
