I just noticed the mdadm.conf I posted doesnt match my drive configuration and I dont think it's using it since all the UUIDs are on the partition tables. In feisty I had this file setup correctly and it made no difference. (this is what gutsy setup for me)
My drive ids as mapped to the above cat /proc/mdstat
/dev/md0
