I agree with David on this. Might I ask why they want this information.

I have been given the task (with a very short deadline) of examining

Any quick way to do this via os/400 commands?

Nope.

It wouldn't be hard to write a program to spin through source members to
calculate the information.

Personally, I've never seen the value in this kind of metric ... the
number of lines of code doesn't seem related to anything of use.
Personally, I'm able to generate hundreds of lines of code in a single
sitting ... and then spend days working on a change that results in
changing single line.
