Hi,
you have put following path for wim:
[boot]\x86\Windows_7_x86\sources\boot.wim
which means - find on [boot] partition file "\x86\......\boot.wim"
but you say Windows 10 BCD is used to store this loaders which is on another disk and its [boot] partition is the active partition on that disk!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[boot] partition = disk from which you start boot process and then active partition on that disk.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For a wim file the exact location of its sdi device is stored in its corresponding device object
which is addressed by the {GUID} that comes after the comma (from your attached picture = {bef16......}
in its Application device element (pretty complex isn't it?)
Currently its not very easy to create a wim loader with any public version of Visual BCD Editor, but its possible ;)
Next version (0.9.4) can create wim loaders on click, BUT it is NOT AVAILABLE for public download YET. Sorry.
Following images are a Win 10 recovery (wim) loader and its corresponding device object:
On UEFI firmware - path ends with winload.efi !
Partition is not mapped to a drive letter.

To fix your existing wim loader just map external disk/partition to a drive letter, then change [boot] (in Application + OS device) to that drive letter,
fix also sdiDevice in corresponding device object!
Then you can copy(with bcdedit) the loader and again fix devices for next wim, and so on.
(And yes, next version of VBCDE can also copy objects ;)
To add loader to boot menu - add its {GUID} in {bootmgr}DisplayOrder.
That would be all.
Not quite - elements "BootUxDisplayMessage" and "BootMenuPolicy" are defined only for Windows 8 and later!
Do not put in a Windows 7 normal/recovery/wim loader!
Cheers.
