Ebuilds are never actually "lost".

If you use gentoo's git repo for /usr/portage, you can always wind back
the whole tree, or some subset thereof, to a state where the ebuild
existed.

It won't be well maintained, but that's the compromise one pays for.

( You don't even have to use git for /usr/portage if you don't want to,
  you can do what I do occasionally and have an otherwise empty overlay
  with symlinks to a copy of gentoo.git at the desired point )
