Thanks, I stand corrected!
It does look slightly different to my SL66 cap but not by much - I did not take
in the measurement. I did mentally question my answer as I was typing it - why
was it made in Singapore? MF cameras were made in Germany.
I will go to the back of the class for not reading the question properly ;-)

It's for the SLR 35mm Rolleis. The SL66 caps have smooth edges and are larger
than the reported 58mm.

Hi Glyn,
Without actually being able to look closely, I am almost certain it is an SL66
series front body cap; a fairly rare commodity these days. The bayonet is
smaller than for the 6000 series and it is also deeper because it fits into the
inner bayonet mount in the SL66 camera - the one used for standard lens
attachment. The larger, outer bayonet is for reverse mounting lenses.
