Well.  There's --machine-readable-output, I think, and also

  https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/ticket/719

which says that from 2.5.0 on, there should be POSIX timestamps.

How old is your OpenVPN?

Maybe it's a bit more convoluted ("depending on logging mode, format might
be different"), but a good test would be to run 

$ openvpn --show-gateway

which should print something like

2024-02-05 10:51:14 ROUTE_GATEWAY 193.149.48.190/255.255.255.192 IFACE=igb0 HWADDR=3c:ec:ef:9e:4a:a4
2024-02-05 10:51:14 ROUTE6_GATEWAY 2001:608:4::1 IFACE=igb0

... with a nice and shiny ISO timestamp.
