If you have Mobipocket Creator installed you can unzip the ePub and double click the OPF and use it to create the Mobi. Same thing with Lit's. Use ConvertLit to explode then double click the OPF and build the book. Don't know if it'll get you what you want, but it might be worth a try.
Are these the commercially available UK ePubs? I've converted over a hundred ePubs with Calibre and never seen the problem you mention so I was just wondering.
