If there is a punch at the head of each roll, you can use that to figure out 
the Keycode.  I’d cut the workprint to match the digital cut.  I think the old 
Film tools for FCP could do this, but I have never used it.  Premiere, I have 
no clue.

Another option, if the telecine is of good quality, would be to go to Colorlab 
and get a 16mm (or 35mm) film out (they do B&W and color, at 5K resolution in 
either format).  It could be less expensive than a conventional finish, though 
an HD telecine is a little low on resolution IMHO.
