PDS command (from CBT tape) with subcommand DSNAME JCL may provide what you are looking for - at least for non-VSAM data sets.

Is there a utility where I can give it a list of dataset names and it can give back some JCL that could have been used to define that file? Simply an IEFBR14 with a DD for each file where the DD has the DISP=(NEW,CATLG), the DSN, the full DCB, the SPACE parm and whatever else could be used to recreate the dataset if it were deleted.
