That's not what '%O' gives you, as you noticed ('O' is for 'O'ffset;
when capitalized, it's in hexadecimal.)

Instead of %O, you could use:

%{printf("Oct=%03o", char2nr(strpart(getline("."), col(".") - 1, 1)))}

[No spaces, if you don't want to escape them, otherwise, needs
backslashes]:
%{printf("Oct=%03o",char2nr(strpart(getline("."),col(".")-1,1)))}

(tested, but the behavior on empty lines could be improved)

Best,
Ben
