I really appreciate your time and effort to help me i checked the first 1000 address using seedrecover with bip-32 path m/84/0/0 but i found nothing,
The path should be "m/84'/0'/0'/0" but your screenshot shows that the correct path is used anyways.

My client said its a blockchain wallet
Bloackchain is known to enable the user to create additional "wallets" under the same wallet_id.
The subsequent wallets are derived with a different path at the "account_index".

For example: If the address is from your client's second wallet, the path that should be given to seedrecover is "m/84'/0'/1'/0";
for the third Bitcoin wallet that he created; "m/84'/0'/2'/0", and so forth.

And --bip32-path is specifically pointing to the external path which are your receiving addresses,
Blockchain is using change addresses although its not displayed in the 'Wallets & Addresses' page.
So it's worth searching the internal paths as well, which is: "m/84'/0'/0'/1" for the first account_index's internal_chain.
