Pippin:

I was assuming that Lucius only knew that the diary would open the chamber because Voldemort told him so.    If it were found in a search of the Malfoy house, there would be nothing to connect it with Voldemort or the Chamber of Secrets -- except the name. If it weren't for that, I don't suppose an auror would give it a second glance.  Horcruxes don't seem to set off dark detectors, or Harry would never have gotten in and out of Hogwarts 6th year. <g>
