I understand the use of clefs to transpose from concert pitch music to
the differently keyed transposing instruments, but is there a chart
somewhere which does things in reverse?
So that looking at a part for F horn, for example, which is printed in
the treble clef, what clef would one use to show what the concert pitch
note is?

My trumpet teacher at Ohio State in the early 1990's insisted that all his
students learn clefs in order to transpose on sight. Drives all my friends
nuts... :)

As a bonus, once you have learned to use the entire system of movable clefs,
they are incredibly useful for transposing music. Arthur Squires, who sang
tenor with New York Pro Musica, had dead perfect pitch and could not sing music
that was not in the key they were singing in, BUT he read the clefs and used
them to transposed mentally.
