There is property in build workflow SourcesDirectory that holds the source folder, if you are not doing anything fancy with sources and definition is based on default it should be what you need.

Its based on following

String.Format("{0}\Sources", BuildDirectory)

The BuildDirectory is retrieved from build process and is the location defined in agent usualy as your linked ($(SystemDrive)\Builds\$(BuildAgentId)\$(BuildDefinitionPath))
