Well, you could try what I suggested, stripping out everything but the partition number to associate it with the corresponding raw number.

Note that you should not use raw devices with Oracle ASM
(raw devices are desupported since Oracle 11.2 - see Announcement on using Raw devices with release 11.2 (Doc ID 754305.1)
and Raw Devices and Oracle - 20 Common Questions and Answers (Doc ID 37914.1)).

You just need shared disks with a single partition, see Configuring Storage for Oracle Automatic Storage Management.
