Can you try importing your project?

Stab in the dark...
Have tried launching Eclipse on the workspace in question and then
re-creating the projects as if new?
For example, let's say you had a Dynamic Web Project named foo. You
create a new DWP in the workspace named foo, leave the source to be in
the same, default place and then see if it appears magically.
You may need to delete some of the configuration files such as
..settings, .project, etc. You have the workspace backed up, so give this
more radical solution a try and play around with it.
I have done this successfully for deleted projects. As I say, it's just
a stab in the dark.

English expression: a stab (of a knife) in the dark == an act of
desperation.
Glad to help!
