If you think twice about your question, you should notice the
absurdity of it ;)

> should I use just any oid?

There is no real reason to check for snmp, other then polling
specific oid's to monitor something. If you do not check any
snmp oids - why do you want to know if snmp is running?
Besides, you could just do a check_udp on port 161, then you'd
know if there is something listening.
