Can anyone show me how to filter (change bandwidth, delay, etc) of one or more users connecting to OpenVPN based on their MAC address?
Why I would like to use the MAC address is I could have 100's of users connecting to OpenVPN and I would like to individually limit the bandwidth of each client
Many thanks

This is not possible, as the MAC of a specific user is only visible on that user's network. Once that user's traffic transits a layer 3 boundary, the MAC is no longer present, nor is it useful information in the first place, as it is trivial for any user to change their MAC address.
I would recommend looking into username-based limiting options.
