That is because I believe you will not find one.

I believe that you will find a pointer to a no-execute partition in the boot 
catalog.  That partition will be a FAT formatted ESP (EFI System Partition) 
and you will find inside it the files used to boot OpenVMS.  It is not a 
boot block, and there is not an emulated floppy image.

I'm not interested in the boot block.  I can get that easily.  I have
not been able to find a utility that pulls the 1.44mb floppy sim
image.
