Disassemble to identify encryption algorithm

Question

Goal (General) My ultimate (long term) goal is to write an importer for a binary file into another application

Question Background

• I am interested in two fields within a binary file format. One is encrypted, and the other is compressed and possibly also encrypted (See how I arrived at this conclusion here).
• I have a viewer program (I'll call it viewer.exe) which can open these files for viewing. I'm hoping this can offer up some clues.
• I will (soon) have a correlated deciphered output to compare and have values to search for.
• This is the most relevant stackoverflow Q/A I have found

Question Specific
What is the best strategy given the resources I have to identify the algorithm being used?

Current Ideas

• I realize that without the key, identifying the algo from just data is practically impossible

• Having a file and a viewer.exe, I must have the key somewhere. Whether it's public, private, symmetric etc...that would be nice to figure out.

• I would like to disassemble the viewer.exe using OllyDbg with the findcrypt plugin as a first step. I'm just not proficient enough in this kind of thing to accomplish it yet.

Resources
full example file
extracted binary from the field I am interested in
decrypted data In this zip archive there is a binary list of floats representing x,y,z (model2.vertices) and a binary list of integers (model2.faces). I have also included an "stl" file which you can view with many free programs but because of the weird way the data is stored in STL's, this is not what we expect to come out of the original file.

Progress
1. I disassembled the program with Olly, then did the only thing I know how to do at this poing and "searched for all referenced text" after pausing the porgram right before it imports of of the files. Then I searched for words stings like "crypt, hash, AES, encrypt, SHA, etc etc." I came up with a bunch of things, most notably "Blowfish64" which seems to go nicely with the fact that mydata occasionally is 4 bytes too long (and since it is guranteed to be mod 12 = 0) this to me looks like padding for 64 bit block size (odd amounts of vertices result in non mod 8 amounts of bytes). I also found error messages like...

“Invalid data size, (Size-4) mod 8 must be 0"

After reading Igor's response below, here is the output from signsrch. I've updated this image with green dot's which cause no problems when replaced by int3, red if the program can't start, and orange if it fails when loading a file of interest. No dot means I haven't tested it yet.

Accessory Info

• Im using windows 7 64 bit
• viewer.exe is win32 x86 application
• The data is base64 encoded as well as encrypted
• The deciphered data is groups of 12 bytes representing 3 floats (x,y,z coordinates)
• I have OllyDb v1.1 with the findcrypt plugin but my useage is limited to following along with this guys youtube videos

Answer 1

Many encryption algorithms use very specific constants to initialize the encryption state. You can check if the binary has them with a program like signsrch. If you get any plausible hits, open the file in IDA and search for the constants (Alt-B (binary search) would help here), then follow cross-references to try and identify the key(s) used.
