How about a flashback query?
orclz>
orclz> delete from emp where deptno=30;

6 rows deleted.

orclz> select * from emp as of timestamp (sysdate - 2/1440)
  2  minus
  3  select * from emp;

     EMPNO ENAME      JOB              MGR HIREDATE                   SAL       COMM     DEPTNO

Here's how I understood the question: you're looking for deleted IDs, so:
SQL> CREATE TABLE TEST
  2  AS
  3         SELECT LEVEL id
  4           FROM DUAL
  5     CONNECT BY LEVEL <= 10;

Table created.

SQL>
SQL> -- delete some IDs
SQL> DELETE FROM test
  2        WHERE id BETWEEN 3 AND 5 OR id = 8;

4 rows deleted.

SQL>
SQL> -- Which ones are now missing (i.e. are deleted)?
SQL> WITH all_of_them
  2       AS (    SELECT LEVEL id
  3                 FROM DUAL
  4           CONNECT BY LEVEL <= (SELECT MAX (id) FROM test))
  5  SELECT id FROM all_of_them
  6  MINUS
  7  SELECT id FROM test;

        ID
----------
         3
         4
         5
         8

If you just want to know the missing pk values then use a row generator query to get all the numbers from 1 to the current max value and then minus the actual pk from it.
