I am not sure about that if its available separately...try this path on esx /vmimages/tools-isoimages/linux.iso.... Also in case if its not available then you can use VI to mount the same.

Just use the install VMware tools option in the VI clinet. Then mount the cdrom drive in the VM, cd into the mounted folder and you could see two files with .tar.gz and .rpm extension. Then you can copy the rpm and install as desired..hope this helps..
