Fixing file permissions by editing raw disk blocks is like fixing a broken clock with a scanning-tunneling electron microscope. A monumental task, inefficient use of your time, too close to see the forest for the trees, and extremely unlikely to accomplish anything.
If those folders have become files, I would suspect they were renamed or deleted and files created in their place, rather than disk corruption or hacking turning them into files. Hacking is unlikely to accomplish something that even the kernel cannot, and I doubt you can "turn them back". Perhaps you could move them out of the way and see if itunes can create new folders in their place.
