Got it had to initialize the header Still got some questions the IGWSMDE mapping the name offset points to SMDE_NAME DSECT and SMDE_NAME_VAL is mapped by IHAPDS that does seem right

DESERV FUNC=GET_ALL can be a nice way to do this. IHAPDS maps the PDS directory entry. IGWSMDE/IEWPMAR maps the PDSE directory entry. PDS2ALIS for the former, SMDE_Flag_Alias for the latter. The directory entry for an alias has the associated primary name. For a PDSE, there might be binder interface that will return to you the aliases (because the program object has a section that includes the names of all the aliases).
