PythonCOM returns a tuple when there are multiple return values from the 
function - typically byref params.

My guess is that for some reason, the Item method takes the int param byref.

But without seeing that C actually is, it is hard to speculate, but your 
best bet may be to write it as:

c, ignored = om.Tags.Item(1)
