All that virt-builder is doing to download the files is running the curl command: https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/blob/a4e3b7c0598370d8d068b21909d...

I don't really recommend this, but the filename is just ~/.cache/virt-builder/<os-version>.<arch>.<revision> so as long as you get the filename right virt-builder should see it.
