You can try www.accesscamera.com in Denver, CO. they have the original
Olympus brand 49-72 adapter for $21.02. It will serve as both a lens hood
and filter adapter. This is a few bucks more than an off brand, but then you
wouldn't be committing sacrilege by placing an off brand adapter on such a
fine and rare lens. If you can afford the 18mm f3.5, a few bucks extra
shouldn't be a problem. I'm *very* jealous. Congratulations on your new toy!
