Since its 10000 years since the hersey kicked off in this system, do you think the IOM has ever returned in the 40k setting or even just the Inquisition have gone just to see if could find out more information.

As the HH is treated as legend in the 40k universe we know.

On the map in HH book from FW isstvan is way out from the current known galatic borders set now.

Legio cohorts are occasionally attached to campaigning Marine Chapters, such as during Operation Carthage (the Second Pacification of Isstvan V). When the Desert Lions Chapter took the planet's defence forts they were preceded by a complete Legio Cohort of Robots. The Robots had been programmed to advance in an apparently mindless fashion, and proved easy targets for the defenders. However, the Desert Lions used the opportunity to map out the defenders' fire-plans and blind spots. In the Lions' ensuing assault only seven Marines were lost.

All the surviving Robots were inducted into the Chapter as honorary members as a mark of respect

From the 20k Compendium.

A parallel could be drawn with Tsagualsa, which the Night Lords made as there base of operations during the Heresy, that was later colonized.
