We routinely use DSS dump/restore to clone/migrate ZFS around the
enterprise, but always to similar architecture. The only humongous (EF)
ZFS I've created was for ServerPac work space, and I started with an empty
volume. I agree with what's been said about radically different internals
in EF. Dump/restore is probably out of the question.

Well, the difference maybe is radically different, but it is very low-level. Regular application using records, keys, numbers and CI's (I mean all VSAM types) should not see any difference. The difference is inside 32-byte suffix appended to each physical block. The block itself is the same, it cannot be different, because it consist of CI's (actually CI consist of blocks), and the CI content is quite well documented. Up to every bit. So the application using CI or record content shouldn't see any difference. Even RBA (for EF, but non-EA) should remain unchanged.

What I suspect:
a) The copy wasn't performed properly. I can imagine what could be wrong, or rather what discrepancy was important. b) Internal zFS structure relies on RBA and The EF file was also EA, so RBA is different. Also note, the filesystem size depends on VSAM size at the moment of formatting. Maybe different changed size made zFS confusion.

Disclaimer: the above are only ideas.
