Thanks for the help!
I managed to fix it :-)
I made a device from the hosted engine file with losetup and for the LVM again.
From there I was able to fsck my partition. And answered a lot of y to the list of inconsistences.
I removed the loop back devices.
I turned off maintenance mode and hosted engine started :-)
Few hours later , restore of the pgsql db and scratching my head, very happy it is running again without any VMS being offline meanwhile :)
I will defintely save the way to start hosted-engine with cd iso, as this seems less error sensitive and easier to do.
Thanks!

Yes,
you have to set global maintenance mode to avoid VM start attempts on
other hosts.
You have to poweroff the engine VM with:
hosted-engine --vm-shutdown/--vm-poweroff (probably the second one in
your case)
Then you have to create a copy of
/var/run/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/vm.conf and you have to manually edit
it in order to attach the ISO image and change the boot order.
At that point you can start the engine VM with your custom configuration with:
hosted-engine --vm-start --vm-conf=my_custom_vm.conf
Good luck!
