DBM just hardcodes it at 40 seconds; AFAIK there is no API function to get the remaining time.

local PROPOSAL_DURATION = 40

local frame = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, LFGDungeonReadyPopup)
frame:SetPoint("TOP", LFGDungeonReadyPopup, "BOTTOM", 0, -5)
frame:SetSize(20, 20) -- doesn't actually matter, just needs nonzero dimensions

local text = frame:CreateFontString(nil, "ARTWORK", "GameFontNormalLarge")
text:SetPoint("TOP")

local t = PROPOSAL_DURATION
frame:SetScript("OnUpdate", function(self, elapsed)
     t = t - elapsed
     text:SetText(floor(t + 0.5))
end)

frame:RegisterEvent("LFG_PROPOSAL_SHOW")
frame:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event)
     if event == "LFG_PROPOSAL_SHOW" then
          t = PROPOSAL_DURATION
          self:Show()
     else
          self:Hide()
     end
end)

If you wanted a status bar (complete with gradient coloring) instead:

local PROPOSAL_DURATION = 40

local bar = CreateFrame("StatusBar", nil, LFGDungeonReadyPopup)
bar:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", LFGDungeonReadyPopup, "BOTTOMLEFT", 0, -5)
bar:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT", LFGDungeonReadyPopup, "BOTTOMRIGHT", 0, -5)
bar:SetHeight(5)
bar:SetStatusBarTexture("Interface\\TargetingFrame\\UI-StatusBar")
bar:SetMinMaxValues(0, PROPOSAL_DURATION)

local spark = bar:CreateTexture(nil, "OVERLAY")
spark:SetPoint("CENTER", bar:GetStatusBarTexture(), "LEFT")
spark:SetSize(5, 8) -- height should be about 2.5x width
spark:SetAlpha(0.5)
spark:SetTexture("Interface\\CastingBar\\UI-CastingBar-Spark")
spark:SetBlendMode("ADD")

local t = PROPOSAL_DURATION
local HALF_POINT = PROPOSAL_DURATION / 2
bar:SetScript("OnUpdate", function(self, elapsed)
     t = t - elapsed
     self:SetValue(t)
     if t > HALF_POINT then
          self:SetStatusBarColor(1, t / PROPOSAL_DURATION, 0)
     else
          self:SetStatusBarColor(1 - (t / PROPOSAL_DURATION), 1, 0)
     end
end)

frame:RegisterEvent("LFG_PROPOSAL_SHOW")
frame:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event)
     if event == "LFG_PROPOSAL_SHOW" then
          t = PROPOSAL_DURATION
          self:Show()
     else
          self:Hide()
     end
end)
