perl should have been downloaded and extracted to your CPAN build directory. By default this is /root/.cpan/build. You set the CPAN home directory when you first configured it. If you can't find it, or don't care to look, you can download the latest from http://www.perl.com/pub/a/language/info/software.html#stable I wouldn't suggest using the CPAN shell for compiling and installing perl. Read the documentation in the perl source directory for information on configuration and compilation.
