The answer is, as always, a firm "maybe".  
Depends on the version of OM-1 you have.

The needles of early OM-1's are bent differently
than later model 1's and 1n's.  If the OM-1 meter
you have is housed on a plastic frame that can be
removed separately from the eyepiece (including the
brass housing), it will certainly fit in an OM-1n.
But if the meter is attached to a frame that is all
one piece from the meter, through the eyepiece, to
the circuit board on the other side of the prism,
it may or may not fit.  If you want, I can post the
precise bends in the needles early next week, or you
can hold the two side by side and compare, if they 
are both out of the cameras already.
