try asking the same question at ubuntuforums.org or at #ubuntu on irc.freenode.net
They will tell you the exact file. But I don’t think it will be mp3. It might be wav or ogg which you can convert to mp3

I dumped the Gnome desktop off my system last year so I’m not entirely sure of the names, but go to your /usr/share/sounds directory, and hunt for the right sound. If you have alsa and aplay on your system, then open a terminal, cd to that directory, do an ls then issue the command aplay until the startup sound comes out of your speaker.
Then it’s a case of get some conversion software, if you don’t have it already.
This is a good page discussing it:

Then put it on your ring tone.
