(A blast from the past... I haven't had the slightest thought about cobol for a long time.)
In your vim, look in

:edit $VIMRUNTIME/syntax/cobol.vim

The latest has:
" Last Change: 2015 Feb 13

To answer your question, vim is on github:

https://github.com/vim/vim/blob/master/runtime/syntax/cobol.vim

That says the file was changed on 1 September 2016; I suspect that was a vim facing change, rather than to do with cobol.

However, taking files individually may not be a good idea; if you can cope with an 80 MiB download following the instructions at https://www.vim.org/git.php could be better.
