I am assuming that the details I have entered via the GUI are stored
in a text file and I would like to start editing that file directly. I
have done some searching through ~/ I have not been able to locate a
file that holds the filter information, even in ~/.mozilla.

Is my assumption right that I can edit the filters in a text file and
if so where/what is this this file called?

The file is called 'training.dat' in the Profile (Default)
sub-directory but it wouldn't be editable - see for yourself.

Google is your friend:

training.dat -> junk system
msgFilterRules.dat -> messages filters (oddly enough)
