Maybe I'm missing something, but I think you might want to look at the VLIST command. Execute a VLIST on a LIVE program, capture the output, do a VLIST on TEST, capture that output, and compare the two. if they are substantially the same, great, if not, then proceed with caution.
And once you get this situation resolved, you may want to consider some sort of version control system to prevent it from reoccuring.
