Lightning channel recovery

I think my funds might be lost, but I'll ask anyway.

I had to recover my node on new hardware using the seed and channel.backup, most channels closed except for one, but the peer is always offline, so probably gone.

Now it's waiting to close, however there doesn't seem to be a closing transaction.

Code:

lncli pendingchannels
{
    "total_limbo_balance": "0",
    "pending_open_channels": [
    ],
    "pending_closing_channels": [
    ],
    "pending_force_closing_channels": [
    ],
    "waiting_close_channels": [
        {
            "channel": {
                "remote_node_pub": "028df6000ced1a2c46d51c459454285e74868c0f5482e810f338c7d5cecc160a25",
                "channel_point": "a8f1df3cd9348e9ed904f99832f9f08ec1c77a9bd073ae0c84873b7d42256f6a:0",
                "capacity": "1000000",
                "local_balance": "0",
                "remote_balance": "0",
                "local_chan_reserve_sat": "0",
                "remote_chan_reserve_sat": "0",
                "initiator": "INITIATOR_LOCAL",
                "commitment_type": "STATIC_REMOTE_KEY"
            },
            "limbo_balance": "0",
            "commitments": {
                "local_txid": "",
                "remote_txid": "",
                "remote_pending_txid": "",
                "local_commit_fee_sat": "0",
                "remote_commit_fee_sat": "0",
                "remote_pending_commit_fee_sat": "0"
            }
        }
    ]
}

I can't "re-close" the channel

Code:

lncli closeallchannels --force
[lncli] no open channels to close

not sure what to make of this:

Code:

lncli closechannel --force a8f1df3cd9348e9ed904f99832f9f08ec1c77a9bd073ae0c84873b7d42256f6a 0
[lncli] rpc error: code = Unknown desc = cannot close channel with state: ChanStatusRestored
