If mdadm -E /dev/hdd1 shows a valid superblock, and mdadm -E
/dev/loop0 doesn't, then your 'dd' wasn't very successful.

What is the size of /mnt/hdb1/Faulty-RAIDDisk.img ?? What is the size
of /dev/hdd1?

BTW, you don't need to edit mdadm.conf to try things out.  Just

  mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/hdb1 /dev/hdc1 /dev/loop0
