I didn't remember C stock going to Olympia.  Was it a very short
period that service ran for?

It wouldn't explain Olympia being on the C stock diagrams in any case
because as far as I know it was on there consistently (and oddly) from
about 1979 till the last couple of years.

I certainly travelled in C stock to Olympia on several occasions in
the early 1990s. My records show the first time was May '93 and the
last Jan '94. By June '94 (and also 1st Jan '94), it was back to D
Stock. As mentioned above, the service was Edgware Road - Olympia.
