Each of the Project's utilities may be slightly different, as each has a different provenance.

OpenBSD's dd(1) is based on NetBSD's, as OpenBSD was itself a fork of NetBSD, a little over 20 years ago. It has been continuously maintained, with the last revisions in support of OpenBSD's new pledge(2) security framework.

Here's a link to the source code:
