If you are referring to lines like this one:

#+OPTIONS: oddeven hideblocks

the syntax is space separated options.

I cannot really help you with the rest of your questions unfortunately.
I do think you may end up getting a little frustrated in the near
future: org has grown "organically" and so doesn't have a well defined
or consistent syntax across all the features.  This is not a criticism
of org mode, by the way... just an observation!

The only real definition of the syntax is the (ever changing) emacs lisp
code that implements it.

What is the main purpose of your parser?
