Foucault is against Ideology in Althussers sense of a universal narrative (ie capitalist exploitation) being hidden/obscured. He does however admit to stable patterns of power, and to systems of thought naturalising forms of domination such as racism and sexism...
I assume one of the stable patterns of power is capital.
He does identify institutions such as asylums, and internalisation of certain normalised/naturalised modes of activity/practise due to certain structures (panopticon ...!?)
Hence to say he does not identify sources of power seems to obscure the issue
