You won't find this file in the repository - that would be too easy. ;-)

This 'apache'-file is stored in the observium archive
(observium/scripts/agent-local/apache). And only there. It is extracted
during the build phase, and is then immediately deleted. This is
controlled via the lfs file:

Line 83 (to be sure: first delete and then unpack source):
...
@rm -rf $(DIR_APP) && cd $(DIR_SRC) && tar axf $(DIR_DL)/$(DL_FILE)
...

Line 103 (clean up):
...
@rm -rf $(DIR_APP)
...

IMHO the best way to apply your changes would be a patchfile (see
attachment) which needs to be copied into the repository in the
directory '/src/patches/observium', e.g.).

Then the lfs file needs something like this in a new line *84*:
...
cd $(DIR_APP) && patch -Np1 <
$(DIR_SRC)/src/patches/observium/[NAME_OF_PATCHFILE]
...
