If you need to connect from outside VM, please refer to this article http://barrymcgillin.blogspot.hk/2011/12/using-oracle-developer-days-virtualbox.html on how to add Ethernet or Wifi Adapter. Then you can connect via other clients such as ssh or PLSQL to the new adapter from outside VM. If you use the NAT adapter, you should use the port forwarding setting as in the article.
