it is wrong. Chomsky said no such thing about him as a person. He was referring to Foucalt's belief system as being amoral

Chomsky said "he struck me as completely amoral, I'd never met anyone who was so totally amoral". Chomsky doesn't consider post-structuralism, and by extension Foucault system of thought, to be a philosophy. Foucault is a rhetorician.
