Hi,

The source code you are seeking is freely available on any of the OpenBSD mirrors:

Getting OpenBSD

Open one of the mirror sites, go into the 4.2/ directory and you will see sys.tar.gz

Download that, extract it and there you have the source code for 4.2.

You may also view it over the web via:

src/sys/
