OO is hiding them somewhere in its interior.

Probably your PC has at least one such file. Read the manual. Check  
whether it's "font.conf" or "fonts.conf" as in UNIX or something  
completely different. Then find this file, copy it to a private place  
and edit it. At this moment you should know where OO hides the fonts  
to be able to to enter this path into the configuration file.

The important part is this block:

         <dir>/Library/Fonts</dir>
         <dir>/Network/Library/Fonts</dir>
         <dir>/System/Library/Fonts</dir>
         <dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts</dir>
         <dir>/usr/share/fonts</dir>
         <dir>/var/root/Library/Fonts</dir>
         <dir>~/.fonts</dir>

It lists where to look for font files.

If you can't find anything I can send you the version of Lilypond.
