Know where to look to get the source?

That's illegal.

The GPL explicitely states:

    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
    customarily used for software interchange; or, 

If such a written offer is included, you don't "need to know where to
look to get the source", because it is clearly documented.

Vyas, can you please comment if such a written offer was included with
the package you received?

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
