OM-2/2N cap will fit OM-1/1N. OM-1/1N cap (thicker thread edge) will
not screw down all the way on OM-2/2N. I wasn't sure so I tried this
one: OM-10 & G/20 cap fits OM-1/1N, will not fit OM-2/2N. I think
OM-G/20 cap has "10" stamped inside. It is perfectly safe to use black
OM-4 battery cap on the md port.
