You probably know more than I do about this, but here are my thoughts. If some loose object of yours got corrupted and you are trying to see what exactly is missing, then (for this task) you are in luck. See <http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/howto/recover-corrupted-blob-object.txt>. If some packed object got corrupted, I'd be interested to hear how this is handled. I think there was discussion recently of how to recover from that situation. If you have the luxury, it might be good to use unpack-objects to get to the first situation. But I think that is not your situation. I'll assume for definiteness that some source file appeared out of thin air in your /lost+found and you are trying to figure out what it is. Then see <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/44750/focus=44754> and surrounding discussion. You could use "git ls-tree -r" if you do not have the filename.
