rpm -qpl src.rpm
should show you a list of the files in the RPM. When you "install" it,
they get installed in your rpmbuild sandbox under: SPECS and SOURCES
subdirectories.

You really shouldn't be playing with source RPMs as root. Look in your
user RPM sandbox:
/home/userid/rpmbuild for your SOURCES and SPECS directories.
You can build/rebuild/edit/create RPMs in there.
