The site to get the OpenVMS hobbyist kit is:
http://www.montagar.com/hobbyist/mount.html

Unfortunately they're sold out of the VAX kits at the moment, but they
say they'll be getting more. I have the disc around here somewhere (I've
moved twice since I used it, so I have no idea where it is at the
moment), if I can find it I'll see if I can make an ISO of it (I believe
this is legal, not real sure, I'd have to check first) for you.
