Just in case, You know secondary block on newer FSs moved from 32 ?
Ref man fsck_ufs
   -b      Use the block specified immediately after the flag as the super
             block for the file system.  An alternate super block is usually
             located at block 32 for UFS1, and block 160 for UFS2.
