How that LUN was being used by ZFS? I mean did you specify entire LUN
(c0t0d0 - without specifying a slice?) If it's the case try to 'format
-e disk' with proer disk, then create EFI label with s0 covering
entire disk (minus that reservation in EFI which you won't be able to
overwrite anyway I guess). Then try to 'zpool import' and check if it
works.

If it's not the case then you'll have to recreate whatever label there
was...
