No, the thing is the editing has already been done so without a time machine there is nothing I can do to compare the old unedited copy with a new freshly downloaded copy. The old unedited copy simply no longer exists.

Do any editing in Calibre's editor if you come across the errors.
I appreciate the help and suggestions. I really do. In future I will always ensure the version on Kobo is completely deleted and a clean fresh version installed, I will use Calibre or Sigil codeview to do edits, I will compare a freshly downloaded copy to the one on Kobo prior to any editing, if I find this sort of thing happening again, I will(copyright permitting) post both the Kobo and freshly downloaded versions here for comments and comparisons.

Having said that I'm just not interested enough to go back and re-read the book all over again to solve this problem. Too many books, too little time as the paraphrased saying goes.
