Oengus is never represented as a twin in Irish myth (though he IS given a sister) as far as I know.
Which is not to say that Oengus did not have Dioskouric traits - but rather that Brigit is not necessarily his "twin" (despite being, like Oengus, a child of the Dagda).

Apollon & Artemis was a couple of twin gods. Is it possible to connect them with other similar couples of twins...
 
UTU and INANA
FREYR and FREYJA
OENGUS and BRIGIT
