Ask the UNIX sysadmin that manages the box.

Use FIND to determine whether the executables exist

Look at system users and see if the UNIX users and groups corresponding to the product's installation exist.

GREP memory processes to see if it is running.

Also be sure you understand what you mean by "oracle is installed". From what you wrote you could mean the Oracle database, the Oracle app server, or any one of a long list of other Oracle products.
