Okrand has used {wa'Hu'} yesterday (one day ago), {cha'Hu'} the day before yesterday [two days ago, the previous day], {wejHu'} three days ago; {wa'leS} tomorrow, {cha'leS} day after tomorrow, {'opleS} one day.
Searching {'op} "some, an unknown or unspecified quantity" (n) in PB (cf. http://www.kag.org/wiki/Paq'batlh) I found:
qeylIS loDnI'
'opleS chovan
tuqmaj vIDevmo' (PB)
qeylIS loDnI'
'opleS bIHaghbe'
'opleS 'opleS 'opleS (PB)
Note also {'op ben} in:
Deb mojpu' vavDaj yer
'ej choSchoHlu'pu' 'e' tu'
'op ben pa' Dab ngan 'ej chep (PB)
I could find no examples of {Hu'}.
