Hi Martin,

maybe you can use this helper function:

(defun bzg-find-corrupted-property-drawers ()
  "Find corrupted property drawers."
  (interactive)
  (let (msgs)
    (save-excursion
      (goto-char (point-min))
      (while (search-forward ":PROPERTIES:" nil t)
	(let ((search-end (save-excursion (org-end-of-subtree t))))
	  (if (not (search-forward ":END:" search-end t))
	      (push (format "Missing :END: at %d in %s\n"
			    (point) (buffer-name))
		    msgs)))))
    (if (not msgs)
	(message "No corrupted property drawers")
      (switch-to-buffer-other-window " *Org missing :END:")
      (mapcar 'insert msgs))))

A bit rought at the edges, but perhaps useful.
