OK, so 952 errors (about 450k) and 25+ hours later, I have a copy of
the hdf drive on a brand new 250GB drive thanks to dd_rescue.
I haven't tried swapping it to the array. That's the next step. I
imagine, I'll be able to mdadm --assemble --force and have it take
the 4 drives into the array. Dare I mount it after this or is there
some troubleshooting I should do before a mount?

You might want to use dd_rhelp:

Having used both dd_rescue/dd_rhelp and the gnu ddrescue in anger, I'd
suggest gnu ddrescue.
