Where did locations change? It's still /lib/modules/xx/build like before.
A bunch of kernel files moved from include/linux/... to include/uapi/linux/...
I have reverted to 3.6.10-15.1 kernel as I do not know how to switch back to the nv driver, switch2nv script is no longer available.
switch2* is useless ever since xorg.conf went away.
Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-device.conf instead, IIRC.
You guys should read the Beta forum. The patch you need to modify the nvidia drivers can be found at http://www.lwfinger.com/nvidia_patches/. The file readme.txt in that directory will tell you what to do. As you did not say what specific driver you wanted to use, I'm not sure what file to recommend; however, if it is a 3xx.yy version, then the one for 304.60 should work.
Note, these patches will not let the nvidia drivers build under kernel 3.8 (yet).
