Roger that, but does the dump of a database name the tablespaces from which the objects were retrieved? And if so, is that accessible?

"--no-tablespaces
Do not output commands to select tablespaces. With this option, all objects will be created in whichever tablespace is the default during restore.

Would indicate it does. I don't have cluster set up with tablespaces to test, but I would try:
pg_restore -l <custom_format_file>
This will produce a Table of Contents for the file.
(Now I'll have to find the version used to dump the db...)
If you have it just use the Postgres 14 version of pg_restore it will be able to read older files from older versions of pg_dump.
