I have a Seagate 1TB Drive [ST1000LM010-9YH146] which had one FreeBSD slice and was formatted as UFS and mounted at /home on a pfsense box.
While changing some hardware around, the drive was inadvertently was plugged into a FreeAgent GoFlex cable (which has firmware) and plugged into a Win 7 laptop. When I went to setup a new pfsense box, it wouldn't mount and had an NTFS partition overlapping the UFS partition. Also, it was never used as a boot drive, just a temporary place for /home while I moved some files around.
There are some irreplaceable stuff on this drive and I'd like to be able to mount it to recover the files. I know enough to partition, mount and unmount, but don't trust myself to screw with the geometry without guidance.
From the testdisk log:

You can use the Geometry menu to change this value. It's something to try if - some partitions are not found by TestDisk - or the partition table can not be written because partitions overlaps.

Thanks in advance! I'm very grateful for any help!
Edit: To clarify it's a FreeBSD partition formatted with UFS, not a UFS partition.
