If that's a case later on in the filesystem, then do a binary search to see if you can figure out where the boundry is between the shifted and unshifted parts.

fancy Linux device tricks I can do to make /dev/sdc1 shift everything
by two bytes?
losetup -o 2
e.g.
[root@shark ~]# od -t x1 /dev/sda | head -n 1
0000000 eb 48 90 10 8e d0 bc 00 b0 b8 00 00 8e d8 8e c0

Unfortunately it appears the filesystem is toast though and it was
not as simple as everything being shifted by 2 bytes. So I will
chalk it up as a loss.

Group descriptors look bad... trying backup blocks...
e2fsck: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/loop7
The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
