I gave it a quick try and the butes SEEM to be created after <BOA0100 is called. (This may also be its "charging up" action..) Don't take my word for it though, I only gave it a quick try and didn't do any in-depth experimenting. There is no event on those two tiles and no commands move another event there, replace it, or alter the map on those two tiles.
It's very likely that they're part of the boss. You could probably block their exit with a solid block, but that's a workaround and not an actual solution...

Try modifying the NPC table, in that case. You can get the offset of any NPC's flags by multiplying their ID by 2 (for instance, butes are 323 I think; 646, 0x0286 in hex.) Unset flag 0x0800 (ignores solids) and an NPC will no longer pass through solid objects.
It should be noted that enemies created inside blocks can still step out of them if the surrounding blocks are walk-throughable.

that works but after heavy press breaks through the floor they swarm out at me
the reason I wan't them gone is that I changed all the enemy sprites & so the butes that appear during the heavy press battle have scrambled sprites

Is the exact ID of those butes 323? If that's the case, I'll see if I can find anything about them in the exe. Maybe I can find something from that point on that could shut them off or change them to another sprite.

Score.
0x007cd06 handles the left side.
0x007cd3f handles the right side.
Put in the ID you want (mind you this is on 4 bytes, so don't just change the first one (43 01 00 00 is what gets pushed onto the stack) or you'll end up with the wrong ID regardless) and you'll be set. The whole block could be NOPed out, too, to remove it entirely. I can show you how if you're interested in taking this a bit further.
The Press basically pushes instructions every couple of units of time. This handles which ID is created. I set it to the weapon energy shard and they'd come out of the holes every few units of time (0xA1 and 0xF1 according to the code.)
In short, the code PUSHes 43 01 00 00, then CALLs the instruction that handles the creation of the butes - I think that's actually a call to the CNP instruction, and the PUSHed value is the parameter. There are a few more stack operations above it, which may also be the position.
This is for version 1.0.0.6, by the way. Look for 43 01 00 00 around those two offsets if your version is different.
