I would probably try alcohol first. I've used rubbing alcohol
successfully on the later partially reflective mirrors. Whatever I
tried, I would test on the lower front corners first. Although the
mirrors in Olys are square, those in many other SLRs and TLRs are (or at
least, were), trapezoidal, to match the actual image on them. The front
corners never reflect any image, so are a safe place to experiment.
If the marks don't have any effect on the viewfinder image, you may want
to just leave them. They can't affect the actual picture.

My OM-1N mirror has what appears to be minor streaks of residue
from--I'm guessing--deteriorated foam. What's the best way to clean
this stuff off the mirror?
