Thanks to Robert, I was able to get the old entries.
I restored an old copy of the control file and then that had entries for
what I needed. On another server I am going to restore the system
tablespace, spfile, and the tablespace of the table I need to export. I will
then export it and blow away the restored DB.
Please continue on with this conversation. Maybe I can try something with
dbms_backup_restore with device type sbt?
