At a glance, the TAPELOOK scan of the MTD tape image looks the same as the scan of the original SIMH tape image.  You should be able to do the same with the SIMH tape image you've got.  My TAPELOOK program should produce the same scan of the SIMH tape image, the MTD tape image after you run it through SIMH2MTD, and the actual tape after you run that through MTD.
