There's several problems. The OP wanted to convert a PDS to a flat file for 
 examining program calls. With PDS or STARTools or superc this in not 
required. 
 
In the process of examining the PDS he corrupted the DCB. There is no  
backup. Using DITTO a necessary pgm was recovered.
 
XMIT converts a PDS to a flat file 80/3120 that is a special invocation of  
IEBCOPY unload and not useful for much other than RECEIVE. 
 
First need to fix the original PDS DCB which can be accomplished with  
IEFBR14
 
//DD1  DD DSN=Original,  DCB=(DSORG=PO,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=original),DISP=MOD
 
Then do IEBCOPY of original to new PDS or use PDS command to examine or  
list members. There is a fixpds command but wouldn't do this until the DCB is  
corrected.
 
Source control may maintained with SCLM or 3rd party software.

There  might be existing tools that are better approaches to the problem.
Someone  here lately mentioned Startool, and I think of SuperC  SRCHFOR.
