Normally, you should be able to access older releases without changing the URL,
(even after they were moved) because there is an URL rewrite rule which handles this.

For an example, 1.1.1a is available at the same location as 1.1.1g:

	~/tmp$ curl -JOL https://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.1.1g.tar.gz
	  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
									 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
	100 9571k  100 9571k    0     0  1992k      0  0:00:04  0:00:04 --:--:-- 1992k

	~/tmp$ curl -JOL https://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.1.1a.tar.gz
	  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
									 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
	100 8154k  100 8154k    0     0  4962k      0  0:00:01  0:00:01 --:--:-- 4960k

Concidentally, a few days ago the rewrite rule was broken, but that has been fixed.
(see https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/11521#issuecomment-612483438 and ff.)
