Well I went ahead and ran cpan to install ODBC::Oracle and it says...
  The DBD::ODBC module needs to link with an ODBC 'Driver Manager'.
  (The Driver Manager, in turn, needs one or more database specific 
  ODBC drivers.
  The DBD::ODBC module does _not_ include any ODBC drivers!)
so it is pretty obvious I do need at least a driver. Will I need
a driver manager?
