Another thing to consider would be whether or not you really want to recover it from a backup that may or may not be trusted. At this point, you might have some second thoughts about that.
As long as there are more DC's, recovery might consist of getting rid of the corrupted DC, fix the problem, and then repromote (IFM if low bandwidth concerns, might be an option). Trusting the backup in this case seems risky. My $0.04 worth.
