Hi,
depends what you would like to see, if you can get an older Oracle installation CD's like Oracle 7 and the package still existed then you can see some of the source code as Oracle did ship some packages as source, even then most of the PL/SQL packages are written in C and make call-outs to C functions to do the work. BUT interesting all the same to see how Oracle did implement some of the stuff.
cheers
