The create script won't help you much here, for the mentioned reasons.
I've explained it in my book Book Announcement: SAP HANA Administration how to get to the CREATE COLUMN VIEW statement. You just display the SQL for the runtime object; it's the same as with any other object.
Go for the SPS 9 modeler for the explained feature instead.
It should work with the SPS 8 HANA and you can install it in parallel to your SPS 8 version.
