In the R sources, so download the R source tarball, e.g.
http://cran.r-project.org/src/base/R-2/R-2.3.1.tar.gz

On Windows you will probably need the source package tools in
http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/tools.zip
to unpack it (it contains symbolic links so other tools fail).

BTW, it is both C and Fortran: stats:::simpleLoess has both .C and 
.Fortran calls.
