I'm trying to modify a series of binary files made with a legacy
program, and need to change a certain character in my search string to
the character with hex code +4.  For context, here is my sed regex:

:s!^@Heading level 1^@\+.\{-}^@\+\(\d\+\)^@\+Body text^@vel 1^@\+\(\_.
\{1}\)[^D^A^@]\+!^@Body text^@vel 2^@^@\2^@^@^Y#\1^Z

with HEX(^@) =00, etc.  String 2 is only 1 character long, but is
occasionally rendered as a carriage return, thus the need for the \_.
\{1} pattern.  Instead of writing the exact character of string 2, I
need to write the character +4 to its hex code.  For instance, if
HEX(string2)=97, I would need to print ASCII(9b).

Any ideas on how to do this?
