Jeff,

I'd split the key in n pieces and then merge them to create the final key or store the ASCII representation of the key and store it in pieces ... in the wrapped code, it will be tough to put it together. Also put this in a package, and revoke CREATE ANY PROCEDURE from those whom you don't want to see the package body.

You could store the key itself in a db table protected using FGAC ... of course this table contents should be obfuscated as well.
