Sounds like it might be a divide-by-two circuit, in which case, you'll want an 80MHz crystal.
<rummages around...digs thru pile of dead parts>...Aha! Here 'tiz...
Ok, FWIW, I'm looking right at an old board here, and it has a 40MHz 386 DX chip installed, and the crystal is a 66MHz. I've never seen this board running, so I can't swear to what speed it actually ran at. As always, YMMV.
