I erroneously deleted the list in the download manager - the position of the List delete and the Item delete are quite close and I has made this mistake before. Where is this data stored? And/or can I retrieve my deleted data?

Once deleted you can not retrieve the data. The list is stored in a file called downloads.sqlite inside the profile folder.
