The private key starts with '6Pf', though.
That gives you some indication of the encryption algorithm used: EC multiply, no compression, no lot/sequence numbers, according to BIP38.
Whether that makes it any easier to brute force, I don't know.

That does make it somewhat easier. I'd suspect the best method is really gonna be trying out combinations of words or something like that.

This assumes the password is randomly generated, and they indicated they didn't use special characters.
