Hello!

   If you want to look at the contents, you can extract the content into 
   a file with dd and then view it.
   If you want to know if the block represents some FS metadata,
   you can use debugreiserfs -1 blocknumber 
   and it will print the content of metadata block (if it will recognise
   block contents as metadata)

   This only applies to reiserfs, of course.

Bye,
    Oleg
