Order part #CB080400 from Olympus/Parts.  It's still available (we use it to
fix a light leak on the Stylus Zoom).

The hood just unscrews -- hold the knurled part at the back of the hood, and
unscrew the hood from it.  The felt goes inside the knurled ring, though, I
believe -- to get it off, you'll have to remove the brass stop screw(s) in
front of it.
