But it DID NOT work for the next one I tried it on. The VM after the change could not fully boot. So if someone in the future makes the initial mistake I did re layering drbd and raw VMs on individual LVM volumes, the short-cut solution of simply changing the xml to point to by DRBD partition name rather than LVM partion name is not safe. The failed instance got part way into booting, but failed to find and mount whole partitions within the VM.
