That's bad. If the moto g 1st gen threads are an indicator, then you are screwed.
There's still no way of recovering a lost imei if "fastboot erase all" was executed. (Who in the world told you to do that? It is well known that this command will permanently brick moto g). And even if you could somehow get an imei through flashing someone's backups, your provider would kick you out of the network because of an falsified imei (it's a unique number, assigned to the phone).

Imei and other private informations are stored in pds partitions
Yes. The system will report imei=unknown if pds is corrupt, read-only or in any way not accessible to the system. Then there it's a good chance of restoring the imei. But after "fastboot erase all" the system will report imei=0 and that is the end of the story. Motorola doesn't give any tools or information on how to manipulate imei.
