To modify a core eclipse plugin

In order to modify an eclipse plugin, what are the steps to find its editable code ?

I read and debug source provided with eclipse distribution but to try a fix in org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext.codemanipulation behavior I need to make it editable.

Well, the source repository is available at eclipse.org, the plugin compiled with the source should be available from the standard eclipse update site.

I'm guessing you are considering changing the source, recompiling and using your plugin instead of the standard one? There is a different way to change functionality, its with fragments. For example, look at a question I asked earlier, follow the links in my text and Andrews answer for more information.
