Usually it should do the way you have done. 

Now, you should back if your production firewall has the appropiate
routes in order to reach the clients of you office firewall.

Second, I would use a tool like tcpdump in order to trace the packets
along the path between the endpoints - this will definitely point you to
the blackhole.

Don't use NAT in this setup -- it makes troubleshooting harder for you
;-)

You should have enabled IP forwarding on the OpenVPN server hosts. And
you have to take care about the firewall rules. The routing & forwarding
between both OpenVPN processes is done by the operating system.
