There is no EPSG code for that. It is not a typical coordinate system
in the sense that the X and Y directions are growing at different
rate. You can get a basic sense by imaging a camera tilted at 45
degree angle then retreat to infinite distance, but you project the
ground subjects to the tilted image surface.

One axis is at square root of 2 scale of the other. See
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/v2/reference.html#GObliqueMercator

It's not a trivial task to do custom work on Obliques.
