Great theories. Here is the exact format I wrote it in, but I changed all the characters. I do remember maybe converting it to hex or binary, or at least considering it.

Have you tried asking goatpig already about that "80-characters private key" mentioned in the old Armory website?
The old developer may not be active anymore, but goatpig (the current Armory developer) is pretty much actively replying on that board.

Once you have a 80 character HEX string, you can try encoding it to base 58 to obtain potentially a WIF compressed key for your wallet.

The private key in HEX is only 64characters long.
The private key in HEX with the network bytes and checksum included is only 74characters long. (uncompressed WIF)
The private key in HEX with the network bytes, compressed flag (0x01) and checksum included is only 76characters long. (compressed WIF)
Any other length will produce an invalid WIF private key.
