[APML] [OT] Focal length of Vixen 120mm f/8.3 *objective only*



Hello all,
 
Sorry for the OT, but maybe someone might be able to help.
 
I have a Vixen (made for Orion) 120mm f/8.3 objective which I would like to find the focal length for.  The objective lens is from the 120 mm f/8.3 scope, which of course has a focal length of 996mm.  However, the scope also includes some optics towards the back of the OTA, so the objective lens focal length is different.  I've estimated it to be about 46.5 +/- 1 inches, but I'm wondering if anyone might know what it is for sure.
 
I'm going to be using this objective as a collimating lens in an optical setup, and would like to model it a little better.
 
Thanks!
Jason
