Perhaps you a in the right location. You go west from Tel Mithryn and jump down a high wall, the chest is there, guarded by several Ash Spawns. I remember there are one or two corpses in Bondmold Armor beside the chest. If the armor is not inside the chest though you have started the quest without any glitches, try to leave Solstheim and come back later. If you play on PC, console command can help you to get any thing.
