Pls-00428: an into Clause Is Expected in This Select Statement

I am wanting to store a Rownum as a variable rather than use a costly Join. I need to get this from a Select statement as the Rownum will be different on various environments so it cannot be a literal string in the code.
For context, this query is executed on Oracle Siebel CRM schema and it retrieves some products of specific type and attributes.
I tried using the following SQL code in Toad and Oracle SQL Developer, however I am getting the following error:
PLS-00428: an INTO clause is expected in this SELECT statement
Here is the code
DECLARE
PROD_ROW_ID varchar(10) := NULL;
BEGIN
SELECT ROW_ID INTO VIS_ROW_ID FROM SIEBEL.S_PROD_INT WHERE PART_NUM = 'S0146404';
BEGIN
SELECT rtrim(VIS.SERIAL_NUM) || ',' || rtrim(PLANID.DESC_TEXT) || ',' ||
CASE
WHEN PLANID.HIGH = 'TEST123'
THEN
CASE
WHEN to_date(PROD.START_DATE) + 30 > sysdate
THEN 'Y'
ELSE 'N'
END
ELSE 'N'
END
|| ',' || 'GB' || ',' ||
rtrim(to_char(PROD.START_DATE, 'YYYY-MM-DD'))
FROM SIEBEL.S_LST_OF_VAL PLANID
INNER JOIN SIEBEL.S_PROD_INT PROD
ON PROD.PART_NUM = PLANID.VAL
INNER JOIN SIEBEL.S_ASSET NETFLIX
ON PROD.PROD_ID = PROD.ROW_ID
INNER JOIN SIEBEL.S_ASSET VIS
ON VIS.PROM_INTEG_ID = PROD.PROM_INTEG_ID
INNER JOIN SIEBEL.S_PROD_INT VISPROD
ON VIS.PROD_ID = VISPROD.ROW_ID
WHERE PLANID.TYPE = 'Test Plan'
AND PLANID.ACTIVE_FLG = 'Y'
AND VISPROD.PART_NUM = VIS_ROW_ID
AND PROD.STATUS_CD = 'Active'
AND VIS.SERIAL_NUM IS NOT NULL;
END;
END;

In PLSQL block, columns of select statements must be assigned to variables, which is not the case in SQL statements.
The second BEGIN's SQL statement doesn't have INTO clause and that caused the error.
DECLARE
PROD_ROW_ID VARCHAR (10) := NULL;
VIS_ROW_ID NUMBER;
DSC VARCHAR (512);
BEGIN
SELECT ROW_ID
INTO VIS_ROW_ID
FROM SIEBEL.S_PROD_INT
WHERE PART_NUM = 'S0146404';
BEGIN
SELECT RTRIM (VIS.SERIAL_NUM)
|| ','
|| RTRIM (PLANID.DESC_TEXT)
|| ','
|| CASE
WHEN PLANID.HIGH = 'TEST123'
THEN
CASE
WHEN TO_DATE (PROD.START_DATE) + 30 > SYSDATE
THEN
'Y'
ELSE
'N'
END
ELSE
'N'
END
|| ','
|| 'GB'
|| ','
|| RTRIM (TO_CHAR (PROD.START_DATE, 'YYYY-MM-DD'))
INTO DSC
FROM SIEBEL.S_LST_OF_VAL PLANID
INNER JOIN SIEBEL.S_PROD_INT PROD
ON PROD.PART_NUM = PLANID.VAL
INNER JOIN SIEBEL.S_ASSET NETFLIX
ON PROD.PROD_ID = PROD.ROW_ID
INNER JOIN SIEBEL.S_ASSET VIS
ON VIS.PROM_INTEG_ID = PROD.PROM_INTEG_ID
INNER JOIN SIEBEL.S_PROD_INT VISPROD
ON VIS.PROD_ID = VISPROD.ROW_ID
WHERE PLANID.TYPE = 'Test Plan'
AND PLANID.ACTIVE_FLG = 'Y'
AND VISPROD.PART_NUM = VIS_ROW_ID
AND PROD.STATUS_CD = 'Active'
AND VIS.SERIAL_NUM IS NOT NULL;
END;
END;
