[OM] will the LH-70C fit on the older 50-200mm f2.8-3.5 non-SWD lens?

Yesterday I purchased a used 50-200mm f2.8-3.5 non-SWD lens in excellent
shape, but did not have the lens hood.  Previous owner lost it.  Anyways, I
wish to buy the LH-70C (this is for the SWD lens version) lens hood with the
opening for adjusting a polarizer.  The correct lens hood for my lens is the
LH-70B, but does not have the opening.  I called Olympus support and spoke
to a representative that I have spoken to before and I did not fully trust
her advice the last time I called.  This time she said that the LH-70C does
not work after leaving the phone for about 5 seconds to research.   She may
be right or may be wrong, thought I would get a 2nd opinion.

I figure I could ask in this forum if anyone has had firsthand experience
with this situation before I purchase a new lenshood.  Thanks for your help.

Cy
