Not only must they be genuine Olympus caps, but the 72mm came in both the
plastic with push-button sides and a screw-in metal version marked Olympus
inside the cap. I think that one is for the 400/6.3 lens. I've found the
49mm 'Olympus' caps to be fairly common, the 55mm much less so, and the 72mm
almost never found. I like having the 'right' caps for my lenses, but its
not obsessive, doctor.
