As for rebuilding the mobi ... kindlegen or calibre.

Calibre will also let you choose (override) the character encoding of the source when converting to mobi. Once you find what the encoding is supposed to be (using the unpacked source, and something similar to EditPad Lite), you could just use calibre to do a mobi to mobi (or azw3) conversion of the original, and specify the correct encoding (under the "Look & Feel" section of the conversion dialog) to use.
