Hi Aiden,
Seriously call the post house on the label (or email them of they are in another country) and ask for the files for the tapes that belong to them, most keep them fairly long term. Even it there are transfer issues it should solve your problem.
Also if a decent post house it should say on the labels if it is 3/4-perf. if you have access to the tapes.
