Could it be that c12t1d0 was at some time in the past (either in this
machine or another machine) known as c3t11d0, and was part of a pool
called "dbzpool"?

You'll need to give the same "dd" treatment to the end of the disk as well;
ZFS puts copies of its labels at the beginning and at the end.  Oh, and
you can "fdisk -E /dev/rdsk/c12t1d0" to convert to a single, whole-disk
EFI partition (non-VTOC style).
