The upstream kernel sources (ie from kernel.org) does include the modules, although they are flagged as deprecated. The standard Ubuntu kernel sources probably also contain the modules.

But to enable them you need to build and install your own kernel, after changing the settings in the .config file as shown in bug #579300 (the CONFIG_SOUND_OSS* and CONFIG_SND_*OSS settings).

Would padsp help? (http://linux.die.net/man/1/padsp). It redirects calls to the OSS modules to pulseaudio so you don't need the OSS modules.
