are you looking for a connection timeout on the connection string?

When a connection is closed, the connection pooling service determines whether the connection lifetime has exceeded the value of the Connection Lifetime attribute. If so, the connection is closed; otherwise, the connection goes back to the connection pool. (http://www.connectionstrings.com/oracle)

or are you looking for the CommandTimeout on the command item?

Specifies the number of seconds the command is allowed to execute before terminating the execution with an exception

I think for a long running query you will need to extend the CommandTimeout property... however it defaults to 0 (no limit) so you may want to check that
