The correct (Fedora12) kernel sources - where?

Building an nVidia driver requires sources for the currently-running kernel. In my case (Fedora 12), it is, according to 'uname -a',

2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686

I thought I could get the sources with 'yum install kernel-sources', but there is no such package. Then I tried 'yum install kernel-devel'. That package exists, but the kernel is

2.6.32.9-67.fc12.i686

This is clearly not the correct version.

Thank you for any pointers!
