Yes, it should be
/Application/Utilities/Installer.app
If you don't have it, that's definitely bad. Possibly you can pull it
off the OS X Installation CD - it's living in /Application/Utilities
there as well (directly in the root of the CD) - just drag it to your
disk. Also try to look in your Trash.
