The format used by pkey is the der format without the first 24 bytes.
For example, to create this key in a shell, I use the following commands :

openssl rsa -in private.pem -pubout -outform der -out public.der
dd if=public.der of=public.raw bs=24 skip=1

As described in the comment line 340 in the file test/lib/asn1.c.
