Dependingt on the age of your "Revue" lens, it may have been manufactured by 
Elop-Werke GambH, Flensburg, Germany. (Elop is an acronym for 
Elektro-Optische-Werke.)  ELOP-Werke was a small enterprise in Northern West 
Germany in the post-WWII period. This company manufactured a single SLR - the 
Ucaflex, introduced in 1950. Production ended in 1952 when ELOP was absorbed 
by Agfa. The Ucaflex is listed as having an interchangeable 40.1mm thread. 
Considering the limited production of the Ucaflex it is hard to believe that 
they created a 400 in this lens mount. Other lenses are not mentioned in this 
reference. Some K-mount cameras by Chinon were also marketed under the Revue 
name in Europe in the 1980's. So were a couple of Mamiyas and a Yashica but 
these had their own company's proprietary mounts.

Sort of a non-answer, wasn't it <grin>.
