I don't understand what you're trying to do.  It's true that iptables
doesn't hook into OVS but there's probably an alternate way to write
the rule.  Half of your question seems to be about adding filters on
traffic and the other half seems to be about traffic not getting
through so you'll have to explain the use case better.
