Reason for Failure
#########################################
We are receiving the error because the binary packages which belong to DATAPUMP is in INVALID state.
And one of the oracle notes (453796.1) says that there is a possibility that the last CPU patch applied might had a problem which left some of the Datapump Metadata missing.

Query one of the Datapump Metadata.
select count(*) from metanametrans$;
SQL> select count(*) from metanametrans$;

0
=====================================================================================================================
Above metadata table is empty which tells us that there is a problem. When i checked the same metadata table in another database it has 3393 rows.

Solution
##########################
####
Load datapump metadata using below sql and recompile all the INVALID objects in the database.
@$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catmet2.sql
@$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql
Note :
You can also try once running "utlrp.sql" as its just a recompilation of INVALID objects. But in my case it was not working as the table data is missing.
=====================================================================================================================
Now there is no INVALID objects and export is running good now.
=====================================================================================================================
