According to LondonJazzCollector, "[f]or the vocals on Simon and Garfunkel’s 'Bridge Over Troubled Water', producer Roy Halee used a M49 to mic Art Garfunkel."
Halee said the following about recording Simon & Garfunkel in this Sound on Sound article:
"Right from the start, I loved their sound because it had a classical feel," he now says. "It was very beautiful, very legitimate, with these two voices on one microphone. They never worked with two separate microphones, never. It would not work. You couldn't use two [Neumann] M49s, separate those voices and then mix them together."
