I'm looking for the frequency printed on the oscillator/crystal.

Here is a picture with several examples:
  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Crystal_Packages.jpg

The row of Oscillators is most likely.  They also come in plastic packages.  
You will probably be able to see that they have 2 or 4 connections.  They 
will probably be quite a bit thicker than normal surface mount plastic 
packages.

Likely numbers are 166, 166.6 or an integer any sub multiple.  41.5 or 41.65 
is a good possibility.
