Well, close. The OM-4 has some kind of target strucktured like a 
waffle-iron which is located in front of the shutter curtain as long 
as the mirror is down. This is obviously where the camera meters on 
for manual- and spot-metering and for the finder-info in auto-mode. 
When the mirror is moved upwards it flips up and lies flat on the 
backside of the mirror in the upper part of the mirror-box.

It is that waffle-iron-like "target" where I found the black sticky 
tape I suspect doesn't belong there.

best

Stefan
