My original question wasn't very clear. I want to send the packets in the
capture file over the network to test an app. that is supposed to capture
them. For example, I could send them with WinPcap. Given that scenario, does
the ethereal dump contain the original packet data is it encoded? Is there a
header, etc?

At least for Ethernet, yes - what the packet contains is the original packet data, byte for byte.
