Is this the MAC address of the new card? Usually it's printed physically on
the card somewhere.

If the above MAC is indeed the MAC of the new card, it looks like udev is
finding the device and changing its name to eth1. If so, then it's probably a
problem with /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules.
But that's *only* if that's the MAC of the new card. If it's the MAC of your
old eth1, then udev is doing the right thing, and I have no idea.
