Where can I find my original 'sources.list' file?

It is generated by the installer.

If you use Ubiquity (the live one), you can see how in launchpad.

I didn't dig for the classic installer, debian-installer.

    Note: If you have lost and want to recreate your /etc/apt/sources.list file, please use the Ubuntu Source Generator, with the appropriate choices. Warning: any custom repositories you added to your old sources.list (but not PPAs) will be lost.

    Where can the original /etc/apt/sources.list be found?

    I know some forum posts and third party sites pasting it's contents, but what is the official source for this file?

    It must be somewhere on ubuntu.com?
