I'd recommend

        pg_filedump -f -i -R <blocknum> <filename>

where <blocknum> is whatever page you need to look at (the high part of
the TIDs of the bad tuples), and <filename> is going to be of the form

        $PGDATA/base/<dbnum>/<filenum>

You get the DB number from

        select oid from pg_database where datname = 'yourdbname';

and the file number from

        select relfilenode from pg_class where relname = 'yourtablename';

                        regards, tom lane
