I canned Peach Pie filling, and lime juice was used instead of lemon juice. Does anyone know if the PH is the same? Will the canned filling be safe to consume?

"Bottled" Lemon and Lime juice have the same requied pH and can be interchangeable for flavor reasons. Fresh juice should never be used for canning since there is no way to guarantee the pH for individual fruits.

You may have created a new taste sensation! But it's not unsafe by any means.
