Answer 1

What exactly do you mean ? You can pass objects like any other parameters
into and out from procedures/functions:
SQL> create or replace procedure get_object(myobj in out nocopy my_obj)
  2  is
  3  begin
  4   dbms_output.put_line('ID : ' || myobj.empno);
  5   dbms_output.put_line('Salary : ' || myobj.sal);
  6   dbms_output.put_line('Department : ' || myobj.deptno);
  7   myobj.sal := myobj.sal*2;
  8  end;
  9  /
Procedure created.
SQL> declare
  2   mo my_obj := my_obj(1,1000,10);
  3  begin
  4   get_object(mo);
  5   dbms_output.put_line('New salary : ' || mo.sal);
  6  end;
  7  /
ID : 1
Salary : 1000
Department : 10
New salary : 2000
