I would think that you are looking in the wrong directory. The 64 bit installer installs the 64 bit version of imdisk.cpl in the system32 directory. That version of the dll cannot be used by 32 bit applications. When you look at the system32 directory from a 32 bit application you are actually looking at the syswow64 directory.

redist the ImDisk.cpl ?

Yes, easiest thing would probably be to redistribute the 32 bit version of imdisk.cpl. There are no restrictions for redistributing any parts of this product, not even for commercial use.
