Hmm.  I'm stumped.  The only thing left that I'd try is to hexdump
search the partition looking for an ext4 magic signature.  That would
give us a clue.

{ Fair warning: this doesn't often end well. }

To find possible ext4 signatures, use this:

hexdump -C /dev/sdc4 |egrep '^[0-9a-f]+30  .+  53 ef' >sb.lst

Not all of them will be superblocks, of course, but that will give
addresses that can be more closely examined.  Paste the first hundred or
so matches in your reply.
