Hi Théo,
I'm not sure about a more direct way of determining the path to the final xorg config (I'm still trying to learn/discover how to find the right path to various generated configs like that where there are multiple versions in /gnu/store), but if you've (attempted to) run xorg with your current system profile you can find the paths in /var/log/Xorg.0.log. For example, lines 14-16 of my Xorg.0.log:
[ 30.068] (++) Using config file: "/gnu/store/w1zvqxc4vzkifpjrs07is7qs3h3x3g1x-xserver.conf"
[ 30.068] (++) Using config directory: "/gnu/store/srgk57icx1mv689ildw2937ik6pyw9q3-xorg.conf.d"
[ 30.068] (==) Using system config directory "/gnu/store/hllpqzv60p9vakrb2p98fvfksdqwcc9j-xorg-server-21.1.2/share/X11/xorg.conf.d"
HTH!
Cheers,
Kaelyn
