I'm trying to find where I can edit the email receipt which is sent by CiviContribute when entering a manual transaction.

You will have to edit following files:

CRM/Contribute/Form/Contribution.php
templates/CRM/Contribute/Form/Message.tpl

templates/CRM/Contribute/Form/Message.tpl

Thanks I just needed to edit the above to say it was not a tax receipt, that it would come in the mail.

Editing tpl files to change the text of a receipt seems rather inconvenient.

Each contribution form can have its own receipt, yet the receipts when manually entering contributions (either for live processing or historical) are based on a tpl file?.  It would seem to make more sense to push all the receipting functionality into message templates (/civicrm/admin/messageTemplates?reset=1) and make more tokens available specifically related to contribute transactions.

That way if you have multple similar contribution forms you do not have to copy paste receipt text for each one, and the same receipt could be used for manually entered (offline and life) transactions

that is a great idea. Please consider filing an issue along with a patch that implements the same
