Maintenance Plans Disappear

I recently restored 3 databases. The maintenance plans responsible for
creating the backups for those databases appear to have disappeared after th
e
restoration. I deleted the databases prior to restoration, but did not touc
h
the plans.
Is there a way to make sure that the next time I have to restore the
databases that the plans do not get removed? Is there a way to backup or
export the maintenance plans?
Thanks
MarkDid you restore msdb? Or did you perform a rebuild of the system databases?
