I am using ExifToolGUI and get 'Bad MakerNotes directory pointer errors' which I think may be causing an error writing the GPSVersionID tag.
I see that if I click the 'Modify' drop-down, the first item is 'Canon Maker Notes'. Is there a way I should be telling ExifTool that the images I am processing are from an Olympus camera, not a Canon?

The makernote errors are generally catagorized as minor,
so they can be ignored with the -m option, but
try the -F option first because it would be better
to fix the problem if possible.
I don't know what the menu is about, but exiftool uses
the make/model tags in the image to figure out what type of
maker notes to expect.
