According to packages.debian.org[1] there is no such file in any
package.

Of course, that's not proof of the nonexistence of such a file, because
it might have been created by some postinst script.  In theory.

Could you kindly tell us what "systemctl status exim4.service" says
on this buster machine of yours?  Perhaps your command is turning up
one of the automatically converted init.d scripts.  If so, this will
be made clear in the systemctl status report.

It would also be helpful to know which of the multiple different exim4
package sets you're working with.  Perhaps this alleged exim4.service
comes from the -heavy daemon package.  All I can tell you is that on
the buster system that I checked, which is using the exim4-daemon-light
package, there is *no* exim4.service, but there *is* an init.d script,
and systemctl status exim4 shows this plainly.
