I guess you would have to contact the Urząd Stanu Civilnego (office of civil affairs) in the town where he was born. Possibly and/or the state archive in Krakow.

You'll also need to bring proof that you are directly related to him

I am not sure that that is the case at the state archives. From what I understand from the Krakow Archive website you can get this info by just filling out a form if it's for genealogical purposes.

I could be wrong though, and it could well be you are right for the USC too.

To be honest with you this will be very difficult unless you speak Polish and go to these places in person...

If I were you I would get a Polish speaker to call the USC and maybe the archive as a start.
