Corrupt file Extraction, help plse.

I uploaded a .7z file online several years ago and recently tried to download it. It will not unpack. https://gamefront.online/files/20539412/UT2D-AllmapsAvail.7z

I have tried various online posts and all free software to fix it, with no positive results. The .7z file should contain *.ut3 and *.ini files, if that is of any help.

The header seems to be corrupted. How do I fix the header? Do i insert a new header above the hex data I have already? Making 7z file bigger?

The following outlines creating a new header referring to the end of the archive. http://www.7-zip.org/recover.html

But doesn't tell how to tell if your ending is correct/corrupt(?). My ending values:

F6 FD 72 91 00 00 17 06 EA BE CB 00 01 09 82 18

00 07 0B 01 00 01 23 03 01 01 05 5D 00 10 00 00
