Do you need Peter Farley's experimental approach? You do if even the job submitter will not know the input-file RECFM.
If someone will know it, and, say, PARM='RECFM=FB|VB' can be supplied, a simple COBOL program that dumps largely canned JCL into the internal reader will solve your problem. The function of the internal reader is to cope with generated JCL; and the generation required here is trivial.
