As far as I am aware, the OS X EULA requires installation to be on
Apple branded hardware. So unless you're oVirt Host is running on
Apple hardware you'd be breaking the EULA of OS X. This is likely why
it isn't part of the OS option list in oVirt.

Yea, but this between the user and Apple, oVirt does not care what do you run
on your vms.

I don't think this option matter. oVirt supports anything that qemu
and kvm support.
Quick search suggests that it works:

Some features require guest agent, which is probably not available for OS X,
but I guess it is possible to port the ovirt-guest-agent to OS X.

Yeah it's not
available at this point. Some things might work out of the
box others will probably need fixing, the guest agent wasn't ported yet
to any *BSD either.
However the biggest problem for the port will be the VirtIO support
without that, there won't be a guest agent for OSX.
