I'm not sure that sed can process \123-style octal characters, since it
already uses the \ character for backreferences.  Since you're only
replacing one letter, you can use tr:
manpath | tr ':' '\000' | xargs -0 ls 

oh Brilliant, i almost forgot this command!

But once I need to work with complex replacement, do I have to use the two 
commands together?

#cmd... | tr .... | sed ...
