There's a CC chart with 5v in the "Tips" section here. You could transpose 'em a step.

I think 5th valve charts list 'suggestions' rather than absolutes- depending on your horn, Your Mileage May Vary.

It depends on the tuba as to what effect the 5th valve will have. If the first valve is tuned such that 4-5 yields an in-tune low Eb, then the D will be 2-3-4, the Db 3-4-5, the C will be 2-3-4-5 or 1-3-4-5, and the B will be 1-2-3-4-5. Expect variations. Those are the only official notes that use the fifth valve, but given the quirks of the instrument it might be useful elsewhere, too.

There are quite good fingering charts for four keys of tuba in Harvey Phillips and William Winkle's "Art of Tuba and Euphonium." The charts provide options for the different lengths of 5th valve, as well as common valve slide pulls for horns with less than five valves.

Find out what configuartion the 5th valve is. Probably a flat whole step. And go from there.
