Default Pot odds for calling a river bet with 4 flush on board

Note: while this does involve a specific hand I was in, my question is of a more general nature.

your hand: J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

board: T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Against a single opponent on the river what pot odds do you need to correctly call a bet from him?

My thinking (feel free to correct me) is that I know where 4 of the diamonds are, so of the 45 remaining unknown cards, 9 of them are diamonds. So it's 4-1 against him having a diamond in his hand. Therefore if the pot is laying me 5-1 a call is correct.
