Just to underline what should be obvious: -ac- and -pac- have no way of
knowing that these variables were originally residuals. Any adjustment
in test procedure that might entail is entirely up to you.

If you are running reg3 and save your residuals from each equation,
calling them residi, where i=the equation number,
you should be able to very simply apply and acf to them, with the
command:
ac residi
and
pac reside
