i2c-tools - built in to tools.  BUT as you have already discovered, Capemgr 
is tied into the i2c ports and as soon as it detects an EEPROM programmed 
for a cape, it will load it.  Sooo, disable the cape first, see 
http://circuitco.com/support/index.php?title=Weather_Cape_Work-Around for 
how to disable capes in the uEnv.txt file.  Once you place the label for 
the CAN cape in the disabled list, Capemgr will refuse to load it no matter 
what.  That should free up the EEPROM so you can program it.

Of course, there is no reason to program it, just create a DTS for it and 
load it manually.  See 
http://www.berriman.co.uk/beaglebone-black-with-rs232-cape/ for a writeup 
on creating a DTS file and loading it for an RS232 cape.  Of course, you 
will need to modify this as needed to match your pin layout.
