Reg,
But if the resonator for the singer's formant were very close to the
source of the vibrations, such as in the larynx itself, then such a small
percentage would still count quite strongly.

And in the case of a tenor high C, I think there are other modes of
vibration in the vocal apparatus. Try this site for interesting animations
of suggested vocal cord movements that are a bit odd :

To be honest I don't think this is the answer: I think that there is a
harmonic which is the equivalent of the first harmonic divided by 3 (an
octave plus a fifth) that gives you a little above 3000 Hz for its resonant
frequency.john
