[Quoted] What is file delimitation? If you can provide a complete explanation ... I'm sure we can tell you how to do it.

But I can tell you that Oracle export/import has nothing to do with exporting and importing data. It is a tool for backing up and restoring or moving data and tables. Likely you will want to look at SQL*Loader, UTL_FILE, DBMS_LOB, and DBMS_UTILITY.COMMA_TO_TABLE and DBMS_UTILITY.TABLE_TO_COMMA for the functionality you seek.
