Yes, this is one of the few TIME you need to do that.
When you run the tool, you get a chance to: "copy to clipboard"

Paste that into a new Notepad (TXT) file (and save it as you have a massive amount of cleanup and will not be able to do in one session)

Another way:
Create a NEW empty Library: Switch/Create: NEW and Tick Copy Structure....
Then switch back to the OLD: Select all: Right click:Copy to Library:<the new one> DELETE AFTER COPY

What is left, is those that calibre did not know about.

FIND OUT HOW YOU GOT THIS BAD and stop doing that
