Thats the SQL code to search your db for all media attachments, see if there is a reference to their guide in the posts or pages, and also checks post meta data.

Then, you just need the PHP code and the plugin code wrapper to work with WordPress, and you could run it yourself. Check the guide I made for creating quick and dirty WordPress plugins. It takes about 15 minutes if you know what you're roughly doing.
