You can try <Action>.Custom_Object__tab. For eg. if the custom object Test, it will be <Action>.Test__tab.

 

I am not sure if this will work. This atleast works when you want a tabstyle of a tab so just guessing that it will work here.

I foundthe following in the help:


When you override the tab home page for a standard or custom tab, set target to the "Tab" $Action global variable and id to the object type. For example,

URLFOR($Action.Account.Tab, $ObjectType.Account)

 

 I think you also have to pass the type of Object in the second parameter. Let me know if this works
