As Bill posted, John H. sells pre-cut foam replacement kits and has
instructions for doing the job yourself on his site <zuiko.com>. Both
John and Clint at <Olyfix.com> are highly esteemed repairers and list
members who will do it for you. You can also buy supplies as outlined on
Lee's Camera Repair FAQ
<http://brashear.phys.appstate.edu/lhawkins/photo/camrep.faq.html#ques_C1>,
although I would look for non adhesive backed foam for the back, or from
various vendors on the 'Bay.
If you have an OM-1 with foam around the prism, that really needs to be
taken out too. I believe a full CLA may not only include the normal back
and mirror foam (and prism, where needed), but some interior foam that
isn't user replaceable.

will happily send the camera any where.
