Are there any components or libraries out there that would
allow you to discover Oracle servers on a network? The
more info you could find out about them the better. I assume
it would have to scan ports or something and try to classify
them as belonging to Oracle or not.

You really just need to scan each IP address for an open port 1521 or
1523. That should cover the vast majority of Oracle servers. FWIW, you
can't easily determine the service name through that port.
