By your own words....in Brian's case, logging was not active. He probably has no plans to change it either for the rare instance the logs are useful. Your point about STEPLIB is very valid and goes to negate some portion of my scanning suggestion, especially if it results in no hits. However, in this case, RACF *is* the easiest solution for this particular situation.

Much easier to look at a log (that's what they're for). Had to do this here recently to find out who/what was recalling some old LE data sets (installed off sysres back when it was installed outside of ServerPac around MVS/ESA V5). Scanning prod JCL decks wasn't an answer either since it was some programmer's JCL. SMF wasn't a help because the data set wasn't opened, just allocated in STEPLIB. I've often wanted an SMF record just for allocation of a data set.
