a.org:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(message "Hello world!")
(message "Hello other worlds!!!") ; (ref:greetworlds)
#+end_src

b:org
[[./a.org::(greetworlds)]]

That's because "search-term" is used for fuzzy search, which is limited
to headings by default. You can customize
`org-link-search-must-match-exact-headline' to change this.
