this is more of a rsyslog question than an openvpn question; when specifying
   syslog openvpn
openvpn will send all messages to syslog with program name set to 
'openvpn' ; the level at which messages are logged is something else, 
however. Normally the messages are sent with facility LOG_DAEMON and 
level LOG_ERR, LOG_NOTICE etc.

You could try filtering these out in rsyslog using

daemon.*  @@....
