The first paragraph of the article at 
http://www.coast2coastmusic.com/diatonic/overblows.shtml says, "Overblows 
are basically blow bends on holes 1, 4,5,6 and overdraw are draw bends on 
holes 7,9,10. The reason the are not considered bent notes is because the 
notes do not "bend" down to a lower note but instead "pop" up to a high 
note. The action and technique is nearly the same as bending"

Peace and music,
