For the 8B, we know that it is a transposition by blocks. (see the forum).
The length is 1435 letters (5 * 7 * 41).
As Harry is nice, the blocks have 35 letters only (and there are 41 blocks).If you take the 35 first letters, you can make 4 distributions:

O U E V E B E
K C O A A F E
O I T I B E H
I A K U T N O
T Q D R H K R

O U E V E
B E K C O
A A F E O
I T I B E
H I A K U
T N O T Q
D R H K R

Read by columns
O K O I T
U C I A Q
E O T K D
V A I U R
E A B T H
B F E N K
E E H O R
=================================================
O B A I H T D
U E A T I N R
E K F I A O H
V C E B K T K
E O O E U Q R
=================================================
A little help with a spreadsheet give the code for the transposition. (C C R and 3 4 0 1 2)
The hard work is to do this 41 times. 35 letters is 7 groups of 5, it is easy to copy-paste.
It is harder for 9B with blocks of 21 letters.

I hope you understand my gibberish.
