My "problem" is that it's set correctly and I want to break it, but can't figure out where it's getting set in the first place.
I can see several places where $DISPLAY is referenced but at the point that the dollar sign is in front it's already an environment variable(I think).

OBXPROP(1) General Commands Manual OBXPROP(1)
NAME
openbox -- A minimalistic, highly configurable, next generation window manager with extensive standards support.
SYNOPSIS
openbox [--help] [--display] [DISPLAY] [--id] [ID] [--root] [--] [PROPERTY ...]
DESCRIPTION
obxprop is a tool for displaying the properties on an x window.
This tool has a similar functionality to xprop, but obxprop allows you to see UTF-8 strings as text.
You may use the --id option to specify a window identifier, otherwise obxprop will allow you to select a window by clicking on it.
Primarily, this tool exists for Openbox users to see the value of the _OB_NAME, _OB_CLASS, and _OB_ROLE properties, which Openbox uses for
matching windows against user-defined application rules.
OPTIONS
These are the possible options that openbox accepts:
--help Show a summary of the options available.
--display
DISPLAY Specify the X display to use.
--id
ID Specify the window identifier for the window whose properties will be displayed.
Similar to xprop, you may pass one or more property names to have openbox limit its output to only the properties requested.
SEE ALSO
openbox (1), openbox-session(1), openbox-gnome-session(1), openbox-kde-session(1).
