OK, so now I have a PBS installed and backing up my PVE VM's. What steps do I need to do "backup" the PBS? If the server fails (the Linux OS drive) but the backup drive is intact can I recover? This is the case where you have a single backup data source and no tape backup or a second server.

Just reinstall pbs from iso/usb and import the working disk. You would not save any time by restoring a pbs server.

You can run a secondary pbs and setup a sync job for ha.
