Actually, unless I'm missing the point of your question, whenever Oracle executes a "RECOVER DATABASE..." command, whether it is an implicit or explict recovery, the recovery algorithm always uses block recovery, no matter how old the version of Oracle. That is the only method by which Oracle can assure a consistent recovery that reflects the most recently committed data integrity.
Let us know if this does not satisfactorily answer your question.

Sorry i wasn't so clear. I received an error indicating that i had an block corruption in my database. Since i was backing up the database using RMAN utility i was going to recover the block using Rman RECOVER FILE command as in RECOVER FILE 11, BLOCK 2954; but then i thought i had read somewhere that's option is not available with the standard edition. I will go ahead and try it.
