I've never had good luck attempting to recover from a failure like this. I've pretty much always rebooted from a recovery partition and not autoconfigured the raid slices. Then I would set up my disklabel on the fresh drive to match the raid'd drive, with the excpetion being the slices would be FFS. Format the drives. Then put the raid disklabel on. Configure the raid device from a conf file. disable autoconfiguration of the device manually rebuild the device enable autoconfiguration http://www.yggdrasil.ca/openbsd/recovery.txt describes my procedure for recovering from a failure. Hope it helps.
