In rhel6 just run:

yum list installed

the column on the far right will identify the repo they came from (if
you installed the pkgs using yum)

In rhel5 it's not as easy - but there's a script in the yum-utils git
repo called:
find-repos-of-install.py

which should produce the lists you want.

give it a try.
