The one listed as:

"cx_Oracle Another Oracle interface"
(same as http://starship.python.net/crew/atuining/cx_Oracle/index.html)

Works like a charm, "comes" with mailing list support: http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/cx-oracle-users

Example:

# FileName OraTest1.py

import cx_Oracle

connection = cx_Oracle.connect("sys", "syspassword", "SID", cx_Oracle.SYSDBA)
cursor = connection.cursor()
cursor.arraysize = 128

sqlStat ="""
select name, status, bytes/(1024 * 1024) from v$datafile  order by name
"""

print sqlStat

cursor.execute(sqlStat)

for item in cursor.fetchall():

    print item
