How to show my Google Voice number as caller ID when forwarding only to the OBi

You have a couple things wrong with the rule you're using. First GV send an 11 digit callerid with a "+" prefix, so you won't get a match (xx. will not match a "+"). Second you are prefixing the callerid with 10 digits plus 2 stars, so you will end up with a 24 character callerid. Try the following rule:
{(<+1xxxxxxxxxx:9163595555>):ph}
Excellent, azrobert! It worked! Thank you.

Don't you want to see the original inbound callerid? Just add a leading * to indicate the call is from GV.
{(<+1:*>xxxxxxxxxx):ph}
Some phones won't display special characters, so prefix with 99 or something else.
{(<+1:99>xxxxxxxxxx):ph}

That seems good, azrobert. I wonder if we can even place a first name like this (haven't tried it yet because it is too early in CA and everyone is still asleep):
{(<+1:Mary>xxxxxxxxxx):ph}

I tried {(<+1:Mary>xxxxxxxxxx):ph} to see if it would pass the "Mary" with the caller ID (haven't tried numbers or special characters) and it just came through as Private.

See the first bullet in the list at the bottom of page 197 of the Admin Guide https://www.obitalk.com/info/documents/admin_guide/OBiDeviceAdminGuide.pdf
M has a special meaning in digit maps. Try putting the Mary bit between single quotes - 'Mary'. I'm not saying this will work as I have not tried it myself.
