If you are able to use the Force to assemble the disks in the correct order, getting the raid device back up and running, then run 'xfs_repair -n /dev/md0' to do the check.

They are two separate code paths that serve the same function, but they behave a little differently under the hood. > Thanks again :) Wish I could have helped you recover the array.
