the .tar files are used for manual updates (on OE/LE < 8.0; LE 8.0 will use .img.gz for updates as well), but you can't do that because your system isn't bootable ATM.
The LibreELEC USB/SD Creator downloads an image file (.img.gz), but is only needed for creating install (or repair) media for a standalone setup.
If you don't care about redoing your setup (both on ChromeOS and Kodi) then a fresh start would likely be the easiest path forward
