You can restrict the arguments they can use on the commands that you specify they should be able to use. No way to just say "let them do anything on file system X only" though.

You can not place restrictions on filesystems by rules in the sudoers. You can only place restrictions on which commands they can run. And if you have infinite amount of time, you can write encapsulation scripts for commands which will only run on a given filesyetem(s) and not on others. But ity is basically dependent on you not sudoers actually.
