Chris,
I put Pentax FK-60 screen (for Pentax Z-1P) into my OM-4T before. The
size is not perfectly fit Oly's but just a bit loose & put the screen
at the middle of the tray.

But I'm sorry that there is no more available in HK, I have 2 pieces &
maybe install to my OM-1n to replace 1-10 screen. Of course I know
there will be affected the metering & I'll test & confirm the
difference before permanently installation.
