If it was me, I would do something like following (after some reading)
  • Install the Ubuntu 16 version of ZFS using apt.
  • Download the source, build and compile the version you want.
  • Edit /etc/modules and switch out the ZFS module to the one you want.
  • Test and if it does not work, then go back to the working kernel module.

Or if it was REALLY me, I would install Ubuntu 18 (which I am running now on a production server). Version 16 is already near EOL.

Code:
myserver:/etc#  lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
Description:	Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
Release:	18.04
Codename:	bionic
