Ifso the file 1663 is nowhere to be found within any directories under the postgresql/data/base/ path. 

Yeah, sorry, 1663 is the OID of the pg_default tablespace, so it
corresponds to the data/base/ directory.

> The 16396 is a directory under the postgresql/data/base path and within it are file files named 16768, 16768.1,
16768.2,16768.3 and 16768.4 

And can you copy those somewhere else?
