Dear Martin,
I think your best bet for this would be to trawl the indices for Vedic
in a Lithuanian etymological dictionary, or the indices for Lithuanian
in Mayrhofer's _Etymologisches Wörterbuch des Altindoarischen_.
A very good and quite reliable dictionary for Old Lithuanian was
recently published a few years ago:
Hock, Wolfgang, Elvira-Julia Bukevičiūtė, Christiane Schiller, Reiner
Fecht, Anna Helene Feulner, Eugen Hill & Dagmar S. Wodtko (eds) 2015.
_Altlitauisches etymologisches Wörterbuch. Band I: A - M. Band II: N -
Ž. Band III: Verzeichnisse und Indices._ Hamburg: Baar Verlag.
http://www.baar-verlag.com/en/Books/Altlitauisches-etymologisches-Woerterbuch-Old-Lithuanian-Etymological-Dictionary.html
If you can read Polish, also useful and up to date is the following
which includes the contemporary language:
Smoczyński, Wojciech. 2007. _Słownik etymologiczny języka
litewskiego_.Wilno: Uniwersytet Wileński, Wydział Filologiczny.
In English there is also Rick Derksen's recent _Etymological Dictionary
of the Baltic Inherited Lexicon_ which follows the Leiden School of
Indo-European reconstruction:
Derksen, Rick. 2015. _Etymological Dictionary of the Baltic Inherited
Lexicon._ Leiden: Brill.
Hope these suggestions help.
Best wishes,
Matthew
