Do you actually encounter an unexpected issue when you run your program?

string pattern = @"{\*\*\*PART - \d\d\*\*\*}" will have an output of "{\*\*\*PART - \d\d\*\*\*}"

it will be read as is because of the @ sign. during debug, you may see the backward slashes prefixed by another backslash but it's alright, in the end it will be interpreted as "{\*\*\*PART - \d\d\*\*\*}" with no additional backslashes.
