[OM] OM-1N shutter firing on B

Hi all,

I was just looking at one of my OM-1 camera bodies and, for the first time
recently, switched it to the B setting, in order to look straight through
it. To my surprise, instead of keeping open, it worked like it had been set
at 1/15 second (based on sound). All of the other (non-B) shutter settings
sounded reasonably correct.

Is this a known/common problem? If so, I have a couple of questions:
a) does it affect other speeds? (assuming I don't need to use the B setting
on this body)
b) is it an expensive repair?

Thanks,
Ian
