Dan,

You hit the nail on the head, mdadm 3.2.6 is able to assemble and get
the arrays online, now just going through the permutations to try to
get recoverable data but at this point recovery is normal and
non-intel specific.

Thanks to everyone who helped!

any idea why it wont assemble? I thought even if data was corrupt I
should be able to force it to assemble and look at it to determine if
it is corrupt or in tact

A bug in mdadm was introduced shortly after the "missing" support was
added.  Looks like you need 3.2.6.
