I'm not aware of any book whose main topic is PL/SQL's formal syntax.  For
that, you'd probably have to have a friend on the inside at Oracle.  If you
can tolerate an old version,  the site
http://cui.unige.ch/db-research/Enseignement/analyseinfo/PLSQL21/BNFindex.html
has BNF for PL/SQL 2.1

There are a lot of third-party books on the market which provide syntax in
their presentation of examples, but the supplement it quite a bit, and it's
not strictly presented like BNF.  I think one that stays near to the
language syntax without a lot of pages is O'Reilly's "Oracle PL/SQL Pocket
Reference" (full disclosure: I am a co-author).

Just curious, why do you want the complete, formal syntax?  Are you writing
a PL/SQL compiler <g>?

Thanks,
