Any chance your EIGRP network, or another routing protocol extends to
R4? This may be relevant as I expect the Type 7 is translated, but the
forwarding address for it may not be currently being resolved via an OSPF
IA route.

Check the LSDB on R4 and look for the type 5 in the LSDB and see if the
"routing bit is set". If it isn't there, than you are back to figuring out
ABR issues. However, if it is there, and the bit isn't set, look at the
forwarding address and then do a "show ip route" for the forwarding
address. If the route that comes up isn't an OSPF route, than that is your
issue. OSPF is pretty picky on how it resolves forwarding address for type
5's and only trusts itself.
