  Comp.text.tex would have been a better (and more appropriate place) to ask
this question.

  The official archive site of tex and latex sources is labrea.stanford.edu. 
You can anonymous ftp to it and look in the directory /tex for the sources
(there's a README file there that explains where everything is).

  I don't know whether or not there's an anonymous UUCP site you can get the
sources from if you don't have ftp access.  If there isn't, you can use the
bitftp server on pucc.princeton.edu to get the files from labrea.  To find out
how to do that, send a message to "bitftp at pucc.princeton.edu" with the text
"help".

P.S. By the way, it's LaTeX and TeX usually, not LaTex and Tex.

P.P.S. You could have found this out yourself by asking the archie server. 
YOu can do that by logging into quiche.cs.mcgill.ca as "archie" if you have
telnet access, or by sending mail to "archie at quiche.cs.mcgill.ca".  I logged
in and typed "set search exact" and then "prog latex" and got back 10
responses.
