I'm confused. Most people read this to mean a non-Zuiko lens in OM
mount being used on a non-Olympus camera via an adapter. However, you
mention using a camera that fits non-OM Zuikos so I read that as
possibly meaning a camera which fits Zuiko lenses but that aren't in
OM mount. Off the top of my head I'm guessing you're thinking of using
a Pen F or an old Olympus folder. If that's what you meant then I'd
argue you're fine.

I think the TOPE has been somewhat broadened to e a gallery of
pictures taken with a lens and/or body that says "Zuiko" or "Olympus"
on it. So 3rd party lenses on an OM body are fine (presumably also 3rd
party lenses on a Oly DSLR) as are Zuiko lenses on any body. That's my
thinking anyways. Normal disclaimer about not being the maintainer of
the gallery or having any say in the actual rules for the TOPE, void
where prohibited.
