What's
the best way out?

I don't know how to replace the object, but you can expand the pack,  
replace
the loose file, delete the old pack, and then create a new one

I don't think that will work here.  The unpack-objects process will
fail when it finds this bad object, and everything after that in
the pack file will be dropped on the floor and not get unpacked.
