Obtaining real (RAW) filename in iPhoto

If this is a FAQ or answered elsewhere I apologize in advance and ask that you direct me to the relevant documentation, but so far I haven't found an answer to this.

I'm writing a script to take photos in iPhoto 6 (6.0.6) and alter them or create sidecar XMP files with exiftool. For JPG and TIF files 'image path' returns the complete path of the original file just fine. However I do have some raw files in my library (CRW and CR2). For these 'image path' returns the path of the "modified" files, that is the JPG file iPhoto created itself, not the original raw file. What I really want is the path of the raw file itself so that I can create a sidecar XMP. Is there any way to accomplish this?

Thanks,

John
