I don't think I understand your question. But if you want to know how to set
the rotation of an ODE body or geom:
void dBodySetRotation (dBodyID, const dMatrix3 R);
void dGeomSetRotation (dGeomID, const dMatrix3 R);
But you shouldn't use these functions in a running simulation. They are only
to initialise objects before the simulation starts. Using these functions in
a running simulation can cause unpredictable behaviour.
If you want to rotate a body in a simulation do it by applying forces:

You can find a lot more info in the ODE documentation:
