Next step would be to run the binary file through an 8080 (or Z80) disassembler. I use z80dasm, which is provided as C source code: https://www.tablix.org/~avian/blog/articles/z80dasm/ but there are many others to choose from. Without the disassembler, just looking at the object code in hex, you might see whether there's a pattern in the first 64 bytes of each 8 byte group containing a few bytes of code then zeros. That's common (but not universal) in 8080/Z80 code because the reset vector is at address 00, and the RST instruction vectors are at 00, 08, 10, 18, 20, 28, 30, and 38 hexadecimal.
