You cannot mix JOIN syntaxes in Oracle this way.

A JOIN condition can only refer tables previously joined using ANSI JOIN syntax.

Use this:

SELECT  a, last_note_user, c, d, iso_src
FROM    X
CROSS JOIN
        Y
CROSS JOIN
        Z
LEFT OUTER JOIN
        W
ON      W.last_note_user = Z.userid
        AND W.user_ten = Y.iso_src
