So for now I'm going to leave the lens "as is" unless someone can tell me if
it's easy to use glue solvent. Also, if someone on the list perhaps knows of
a way of getting a replacement 2nd element (maybe from a damaged lens
someone might have?), I would be very interested. Maybe Oly even sells these
elements separately, but I'm guessing that will be _quite_ expensive...

You might try S.K.Grimes who seems to have reasonable rates listed on his
website and specialises in recementing, custom filters (he has an interesting
method patented) and large format cameras. If you send him the lens element
alrady removed he may be able to do it more inexpensively.
Here is the link: http://www.skgrimes.com/popsci/index.htm
For repairers his site has interesting photographs and information on
old and new techniques for cementing and also info on lens threads.
I have not used his services but like his homely site.
