I think that the return of one or more Primarchs would be an awesome boon for the Imperium, though not enough to save it as a whole. The vastness of the Imperium works against them in this, as they can't be at all the places they need to be at once. It would, however, make mankind a whole lot harder to exterminate, as they could use their tactical badassery to save, or at least salvage most battles. In case of assault on Terra, they could make it an extremely costly campaign for the invaders. And if all fails, they would see that a lot sooner than most humans, and thus make a tactical retreat to, maybe start over somewhere.

If the Emperor would somehow be cured... Well, that would be an awkward conversation with the ecclesiarchy.

And I hope that Alpharius/Omegon actualy turn out to be loyal all along and cure emps. In secret.
