Data awk OFS

Oh, my god, I think I am too bad at communication.
Maybe that's why I am still just a poor programmer...

OK.
This is the file I originally had:
1089, KEVIN_RIDDLE
1137, STEPHEN_SMITH
1214, MELISA_someone
1267, SANDY_name

Two things I'd like to get from this file:
1. replace the comma with space for OFS
2. Add "0000 00" at each line of the original file according to the length of the name.

So this is going to be the final file I'd like to see:

1089 KEVIN_RIDDLE
0000 00
1137 STEPHEN_SMITH
0000 00
1214 MELISA_someone
0000 00
1267 SANDY_name
0000 00


The "0000 00" should be aligned from right side

mlib_VideoColorYUV444seq_to_ARGBint(3MLIB)		    mediaLib Library Functions			mlib_VideoColorYUV444seq_to_ARGBint(3MLIB)

NAME
mlib_VideoColorYUV444seq_to_ARGBint - color convert YUV sequential to ARGB interleaved SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lmlib [ library... ] #include <mlib.h> void mlib_VideoColorYUV444seq_to_ARGBint(mlib_u32 *ARGB, const mlib_u8 *Y, const mlib_u8 *U, const mlib_u8 *V, const mlib_u8 *A_array, mlib_u8 A_const, mlib_s32 w, mlib_s32 h, mlib_s32 dlb, mlib_s32 slb); DESCRIPTION
The Y, U, V pixel streams are converted into an ARGB pixel stream. All pixel components are 8-bit unsigned integers. All buffers have dimensions w and h. The alpha values for this function work in the following fashion: o If A_array pointer is not NULL, the values are taken from there. It has to have the same dimensions as the Y buffer. o If A_array pointer is NULL, the alpha values for every pixel are set to A_const. The following equation is used: |R| |1.1644 0.0000 1.5966| [|Y| | 16.0000|] |G| = |1.1644 -0.3920 -0.8132| * [|U| - |128.0000|] |B| |1.1644 2.0184 0.0000| [|V| |128.0000|] PARAMETERS
The function takes the following arguments: ARGB Pointer to output buffer. Y Pointer to Y input buffer. U Pointer to U input buffer. V Pointer to V input buffer. A_array Array of alpha values. A_const Constant alpha value. w Image width in pixels. h Image height in lines. dlb Linebytes for output buffer. slb Linebytes for input buffers. RETURN VALUES
