I don't understand the question, what do you like to know, \zeta (proportional to 1/r dV/dr) for each atom or the orbital moment (m_l) for each atom ?
The r dependence tells you already that there is no single value for 'zeta = zeta(r)' SO is calculated directly from dV/dr which is not printed somewhere, however for a pure Coulomb potential (Z/r) it depends on the ordinal number Z of the atom, This explains why the spin orbit interaction is stronger for 'heavier' atoms. |1/r dV/dr| becomes large in the vicinity of the nucleus (infinity at r=0) for all atoms. This explains why the spin-orbit splitting is large for core level (the larger the closer they are (in average) to the nucleus) and small for semi-core or valence level, as these electrons are in average farer away from the nucleus. Check the manual how to have the orbital moments printed. Ciao Gerhard DEEP THOUGHT in D.

The goal is to analyze magnetic anisotropy energy in YCo_5 intermetallic. As it was explained in few presentation discussing SOC implementation in wien2K it's added in following form \zeta ({\vec \sigma}{\vec l}), where \zeta = 1/(2Mc^2) 1/r^2 dV/dr. Question: is it possible to output value \zeta for each atom, orbital moment? I cant find it in output files and was not able to find following discussion in archive.
