Ubuntu packages for xfce can be found at
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/x/
This directory contains all the packages, starting with x, for the last
few Ubunutu releases.
Anytime you want to get a package, you can find them by entering the
url from the repository, and going to the "pool" directory. This is
true of both Ubuntu and debian repositories.

PS, Manually installing all the packages for an xfce setup, via "dpkg
-i", will take a while. I would seriously try to get apt, aptitude, or
synaptic working first.
