The OID is mentioned in the ASN1 module. But you have to expand each part.
from RFC3280:
id-ad OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { id-pkix 48 }
id-ad-caRepository OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { id-ad 5 }
id-pkix OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::=
{ iso(1) identified-organization(3) dod(6) internet(1)
security(5) mechanisms(5) pkix(7) }
Which expands to 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.48.5 as I said before.
