If it is the light seals, Łukasz, you can get light seal material from
www.microtools.de (assuming that you are in Poland). Alternaitvely, I have
a set of Olympus precut light seals I can sell you. Contact me off-list if
you are interested.

Subject: [OM] OM-4 random light leak problem
All right, here's another issue I have with my OM-4 - from time to time, in
a random matter, the camera spoils few frames on a film roll. I can't really
notice any pattern it follows - I've observed from zero to four ruined
frames in different light conditions. I even played with the camera with a
film inside on a harsh sun and to my surprise there was no effect.
Then again, on a roll made in a dim woods light leaks occur. The leak itself
looks like this:

It always starts from the bottom of the frame towards the center, rarely
reaching top of it.
If it's seals issue, the question is where can I get them (even from a third
party) and tools to replace the seals? Can it be anything else but the light
seals? Odd thing is they (I mean light seals) are on their place and are -
for my unexperienced eye - in good condition.
