If you are using iLife 08, you can find the originals by Control-clicking the iPhoto Library item in your Pictures folder, and choosing "Show Package Contents". In the Contents is a folder called "Originals". That's the one you want. If you are using iLife 06, then the Originals folder is in Hard Drive/Users/[you]/Pictures/iPhoto Library folder.
