Am using the Oly OM-D E-M1 with the PT-EP11 Housing ... What lens and port combo would work out most economical for wide angle... Everything I've seen only is crazy expensive

The most economical is just to buy the Olympus 9-18 lens and use it in the existing housing and port. It fits andluckly the zoom gear from the kit lens fits the wide angle.
Is it perfect? No, but a good entry into wide angle. Yes, the pro lenses are better, yes 7mm and dome is better, but the costs are 4x higher the best combination.
The next upgrade from just the 9-18 is to buy a dome port, such as the Zen port -- it does need an extension.
