After migrating spaces to Confluence Cloud, we noticed that links that point to other spaces' attachments are not working.

 

Easy enough to fix - I can use the essential "Source Code Editor for Confluence" macro to mass replace:

with:

https://domain.atlassian.net/wiki/download/attachments/98765-good_attachment_trove_number

 

However, If I simply try to find pages that have those old, broken links using the search button, I get 0 results.

 

Anyone know how to search a little deeper in pages (preferrably entire spaces) for patterns in the links?

@Gary Griffith welcome to the Atlassian community

There is a free app on the Atlassian Marketplace called Link Management for Confluence which lets you find all hyperlinks in a given Confluence space. And if you find a link that's broken, it also lets you replace the broken link on all pages the link appears on.  You should try that.
