Aren't there some bits of it available?
As you know there are PDP-11 sources available:
http://minnie.tuhs.org/cgi-bin/utree.pl
But I recall reading that at least some PDP-7 DECtapes were read, though
not a complete system. But I'm probably mistaken, at the moment I can
only find this: http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/dmr/notes.html
and this:
http://epublications.bond.edu.au/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1149&conte…
Indicating that only PDP-11 versions are available.

Where on earth did you find the software for
DECsys-7?
Bob Supnik has had it for a while. I think he even wrote a paper about
getting it working.
LCM has it as well. The got a bunch of 7 software with the Univ of Oregon Physics Dept
machine.
A bunch of work was done while Bob was developing the 18 bit simulators for SIMH and
while
Hans Pufal and I were still able to find things.
