Just about everything related to objects created in Oracle is available via the dictionary: all_, dba_, and user_source. Only the owner or a DBA can see the source for a package body but if you have execute privilege on the package you can see the specification source via these views as long as the source was not wrapped. If the source is wrapped you are pretty much out of luck if you do not have the source stored away somewhere.
