Since I'm a great fan of fixing things with a sector editor, I'll jump in.
DRFLOPPY is a shareware sector editor that is mostly useful for changing boot
sectors, because it's a mite finicky about total sectors per track.  MEMFILE
is probably better all-around; I believe it is entirely free, and it was
included with the PD collection distributed with the first edition of NEODESK.
Neither one should be hard to find on BBS-s.
