I doubt that there was an SVC entry point for it,and 120 is either GETMAIN or 
STORAGE.

Wasn't that SVC 120? Or possibly part of it.
Do those components you mention use the media manager (another component
that is not well documented to mere mortals)?

Subject: Actual Block Processor

There used to be an MVS component called Actual Block Processor that did low
level I/O for CI-formatted data. IS there an equivalent routine in z/OS used
by, e.g., HFS, PDSE? If so, is there a source that I can cite in Wikipedia?
