Iffmpeg in combination with MPEG Streamclip did manage to restore the file to a usable form. There may have been other ffmpeg options that I didn't know about that might have saved me step but this is how it went.

I tried a basic ffmpeg container copy first with no luck. The file still would only play audio in any tool I tried.

iffmpeg was not able to convert the file to a working prores or hevc format but it did out a .h264 high profile version that only one of my video tools would play (mpegstreamclip). This was lucky bacause compressor, media encoder, VLC and QuickTime could not play converted file. So I converted to Prores using mpeg strramclip and imported that file into FCPX and was able to continue on with the project.

Ill probably but a new memory card to be on the safe side and I greatly appreciate Alex's advice!
