Marc and Stefan: I think Leitz has the answer with regard the 16464
focusing mount.The "Handbook of the Leica- System", issued in July 1982 on
page 111 states, "Universal helical focusing mount for the use of the 65 mm
ELMAR-M f/3.5, the 90 mm ELMARIT-M f/2.8 and 135 mm TELE-ELMAR-M f/4 lens
units....16464"
