In this scenario is the SAN actually a host of some kind using OCFS2 and sharing the block device. Then the servers all mount OCFS2 off the SAN.

If that is true then you don't want to give one HDD to "all" VMs. You want to have one VM as your SAN use OCFS2 on that and then have several VMs connect to that VM.

Not true.

"GFS and GFS2 differ from distributed file systems (such as AFS, Coda, or InterMezzo) because it allows all nodes to have direct concurrent access to the same shared block storage."

A SAN admin or a senior Oracle admin would have no trouble understanding my first email at first sight. It's something they do all the time with real hardware, and I'm trying to emulate in software.
