You don't need 40K unbuffed to tank ICC10. 35K is acceptable for both guild runs an stuck up PuG leaders. Especially if you are going to be the offtank and mainly take things like cleave damage on the first boss (having a brainfreeze and can't remember his name).
Although 40K is great if you will be maintanking. Which, from your post, I'm guessing your not.

if i were in your situation and the guild actually wanted you to tank icc from time to time i'd ask them for priority after the tanks...say both tanks don't need but there's other plate wearers...like a ret paly or fury war that want the piece for offspec but their never required to tank icc. At that point i'd ask to have priority so that the guild can have a geared secondary tank. especially if your willing to put in the time to have both sets of gear enchanted and gemmed correctly.
alot of people with tank offspecs don't buy epic gems or good enchants for their tank set. we did something similar and gave priority on offspec tank pieces to players that actually tanked the higher content when the main tanks weren't on.

If you check my armory you will see that I have 35,7k hp, which is 37,3k hp with frost presense( I don't count that as a buff, since you wont ever tank without it ^^ )
The only raiding I have ever done is ICC rep runs, that I easily solo tanked in this gear...
Armory:

I do realize that i need weapons without block rating, and new boots.. And that there are a couple of items i could still upgrade through ICC 5man. Just wanted to show you that 35k ub hp is easily achievable through heroics only.

I have the 232 Heroic Neck, 226 Triumph belt with Eternal socket, Ony Trinket, Gossamer Trinket, Platinum Mesh Cloak, and Black Spire 232 boots. Everything enchanted & Gemmed. The OffTank set is 557 Defense and Hit-capped. Just stuck at 34K
Unbuffed health
. What am I missing?
Hard to say without an armory link exactly what your problem is.
The Black Heart
instead of Ony trinket. Hit cap also sounds a little iffy because all that hit rating could be spent on stamina.

I'm not sure yet, how bad is hit issue for DK tanks.
I did noticed that lack of hit screwing my high-threat rotation by alot, but I rarely using it, on bosses mostly, even then not every boss allow for that.
