It depends on what type of feed you have.  While you could find the URLs
by noodling through the source of
nessus-core/nessus-fetch/nessus-fetch.c or tracing network activity for
a server that does have access, you'd be better off getting
nessus-update-plugins working since that's the proper method. 


 I can't use automatic downloads.


So run nessus-update-plugins on demand then.

If you mean instead that your Nessus server doesn't generally have
access to the 'net, then look into setting up a proxy and running
nessus-update-plugins through that.  Otherwise, you'll need to set up
Nessus on a box that does have access and scripting something to
periodically copy plugins from one host to the other.
