This is the link to the 4.0BSD fsck version in the history repo:

To navigate to the 4.0BSD release in the repo, the process is not the
most intuitive. Click on the top-right button labeled "Branch: master",
click on the "Tags" tab, and select BSD-4. This drives you to
https://github.com/dspinellis/unix-history-repo/tree/BSD-4.
I believe he gave a copy of the sources very
early to wnj -- which is how
it ended up in 4.1BSD. I don't think it was in the original 3.0 or 4.0
packages as it was not in V5, V6 or V7 either. I believe it was released in
PWB 2.0 - not sure and Minnie does not seem to have them.
Yes, [fsck] is in 4.0BSD (the copy I have has it documented in the setup.t
from Nov. 15, 1980, fsck.mm from Oct. 15, 1980). It appears to be the
same code as in 4.1 also.
(But I cannot find 4.0 in Diomidis's git repo. I also don't have the
original SCCS data from the early fsck, probably because it got moved
and extended in different location.)
