You can use vi -b for binary editing on unix (install vim if your standard
vi doesn't support it). just don't add nor delete anything, overwrite with
"R" command.
 
I'd test few different not-so-trivial scenarios like messing up a rollback
segment header, a rollback segment block, some current online redo block
etc.
