It may be a 39mm lens:

You could start with a T-mount adapter to get to 42mm:

Then a 42mm to 39mm step-down adapter ring:

Not sure about the clearances, and you may not get infinity focus depending upon how far out the lens ends up being situated from the focal plane of the sensor.

Edited to add: google turned up this direct EOS to M39 adapter:

But note "DOES NOT allow focus to infinity".
