Sure, Novoflex should have one; I think some Far East companies too for much lower costs. To couple it to the rangefinder cam is not possible though.
Best thing -no concern- try to use the wide OM's with zone focusing..

sure, there are adapters, just not rangefinder coupled, but in general, it can be done, i would love to used my OM superwides an an M9.. (main reason for my M9 lust.. but the thing is soooo expensive..)

I can try, Paul, if you get me donor lens and adapter (for example 150807052567 @ ebay). Always wanted to. Similar to what I did with the 50/1.4 Takumar:

The Zuiko 50/1.4 might be more interesting since the Canon 50/1.8 LTM is quite affordable, but there is really no alternative to a close focusing, less than thousands of dollar 50/1.4.
Also, the head bartender used to sell "double focus" adapters that allowed to focus correctly. Have one of those as well.
