I believe the "OM" are all supposed to be bad ...
That while some of the "OL" are bad all of the good ones are labeled
"OL".

The screw head at the top of the picture looks like it is the one near
the red dot on the lens. The next screw head clockwise is the one which
would end up close to the reset button when the lens is completely
mounted on the camera.

If I'm seeing the pictures correctly the second screw head and the small
tab near it (which is used to manually stop down the lens) are both
slightly closer to the to the first screw head on the bad mount.
Perhaps the easiest way to tell the good from the bad is that one edge
of the manual stop down tab is inline with the second ear of the bayonet
mount (next to Japan) on the good mount.

Does this make sense to anyone besides me?

Thanks, -jeff
