The normal repositories are:

/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/ for system-wide additions
~/Library/texmf/ for user-specific additions

See, in particular:

/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.gwtex/README.texmf.gwtex
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.gwtex/README.howtexfindsfiles
<http://ii2.sourceforge.net/tex-index.html#not%20found>
<http://www.uoregon.edu/~koch/texshop/whereisstuff.html>

> Where can I set a path to this?

If you use the above standard repositories, no path to set (but run  
texshash after modifying /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/).
