That almost certainly wouldn't work - the data from
zfs send contains what's needed, but almost certainly not
in the same format that it's stored on disk.

While I'm just guessing here, I'd make sure of the following:

* that the receiving zpool version is at least as high as the sending
version

* run a scrub on the sending spool and make sure it's clean

Maybe it would also be interesting to try something like

zfs send al...@3 | zstreamdump -v

(or without the -v if that's too much) which might (or might not)
give some additional hint as to what's wrong.
