I've been working on a DVD that would boot into WinPE 2004 to do basic recovery and Windows XP SP2 installations. It also has the complete Office 2003 product family with SP1 setup via an administrative installation point. I've got everything working except the $OEM$ part. The scripts I'm using are below with thier paths.

It seems like $OEM$ never gets processed? I've read most of http://unattended.msfn.org and the searched the Microsoft Windows Corporate Deployment Tools User's Guide (CHM)
