I'm not sure if there's a utility out there or a way to go about this
but here's my situation.

Several years ago I created a pgp disk and burned it onto a CD (using
version 6.5.3). Now, I'm attempting to mount the volume off the CD
using ver 8.0.3.

As a contingency, I wrote down the passphrase someplace safe and sure
enough after all this time I forgot what it was. Now the problem is
that I wrote it down wrong. I am positive that about 99% of what I
wrote down is correct, however I think that I screwed up with the
placement of a "space" or something to that effect. Let's say my
passphase consists of the characters "bigstupid123dog" and in that
order. Is there any utity out there that I could use to, "try
insterting a 'space' systematically thoughout the phrase" or "instert a
'space' and change all 'i's to 'e's"?

I really hope there is... really REALLY hope.

Thanks

You might want to take a look at Password Recovery Toolkit
http://www.accessdata.com/downloads.htm - the demo.

It might possibly help.

Why would you change and i to an e? Usually an i is changed to a one
and an e a 3. So it would be b1gstup1d123dog.
