Jon, I assume you're looking for an API to generate MD5 hashes. In that
case you'll probably want to look at the cryptographic documentation for
z/OS, located here:

http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/zseries/zos/bkserv/r7pdf/crypto.html

It looks like the CSNBOWH (without ALET) or CSNBOWH1 (with ALET) or CSNEOWH
(AMODE(64)) ICSF callable service will do the trick for you. And it looks
like IBM Publication SA22-7522 documents how you would use that call. There
are some code samples in Appendix D of that manual that show how to use
ICSF callable services from several different languages. In fact, the PL/1
example happens to call CSNBOWH.

Hope that's what you were looking for.
