Yes, certainly there could be some interesting sequences here.  
Please do submit some.
Along these lines, you might consider a(n) the least x
such that A000120(n*x) = A000120(x).  This sequence starts
1, 1, 3, 1, 7, 3, 7, 1, 15, 7, 3, 3, 5, 7, 15, 1, 31, 15, 7, 7.
Of course, all terms are odd.  Does it contain every odd number?

Cheers,
Robert
