Red hat yum downloads packages from RHN Centos yum downloads packages from the fastest mirror?
There is difference in configuration.
Redhat uses yum rhnplugin to download packages from rhnet.
It's only difference. rhnplugin is closed source system that ties into rhn.redhat.com
http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/6Server/en/os/SRPMS/yum-rh...
Is this the package?

Yes, and it has a stack of dependencies to manage RHEL authentication. Frankly, I always disable it except on a host that is downloading a local RHEL mirror with "reposync", and which is my local yum repository. That makes the components available to non-root users for review and downloading, one of the great flaws of that plugin.
