Why not?
If there was any viable avenue for science to proceed on ID , then I'm sure it would certainly be perused and investigated.

Obviously not, otherwise we would be hearing about it.

The science community itself. They would definitely announce something if they discovered anything.

Well, I'm sure there are scientists who would love to find out, but they require a viable place to start first, so I don't think they are actually finding things, but I'm sure a number are still looking.But, this means they are finding.
Science works with observation, evidence and experiment
When someone provides any of those for a physical and natural god or gods then science will take an interest
Science has no interests. Science is just a method to test what we believe is true.
However some individual scientist might have this interest if they can come up with a method to falsify some of the beliefs about God.
How they'd go about that, I'm not really sure since God doesn't make themselves available for testing.
I mean how would you go about falsifying any of the many different beliefs about God.
Which god? And what do you mean by "finding" it?
I mean, from my perspective as a Pagan - where the gods are literally all the stuff of reality and then some - science is the study of the gods through methodological naturalism. Somehow, I doubt this is what you meant.

Have you studied science completely ?
You're asking if a tool and a methodology is a person. That statement makes no sense. Science is a tool for discovering HOW the universe works. Some questions are not relevant to the scientific method and you've asked one of them.
Scientifically, correct, nothing to examine so no interest. There may be one or few who are looking at the idea for their own personal perspective, these people tend to work for the Discovery Institute
