Currently, as a workaround, I use Calibre's Spellcheck (like pictured above).
Then I usually just type the numbers 0-9 in the search box one-by-one, and do a quick scan through the list to see if anything strange pops out.
And I have a few Regex that I use to try to minimize the impact:
Search: [lo]\d
Search: \d[lo]
That tries to catch things like "19l0" or "l910" or "It was 8.o5cm long".
I also try to use this:
Search: (Jan|Feb|Mar|Apr|Aug|Sept|Oct|Nov|Dec)\. [lo]
Search: (January|February|March|April|August|September|Oct ober|November|December) [lo]
to try to catch the odd dates: "Jan. i5, 2017" or "March i, 1910" or "August i982".
