The theory you guys have come up with so far seems plausible to me. Didn't Mugly pop a rod when it's 6637 got splashed with river water? (might have been more like submerged vs. a splash...)
So it may be possible for a fair amount of liquid to get past the filter element...
There was plenty of fuel on the filter even after the truck stopped running. I think it was spraying fuel for a while because the whole heat sheid on the hood was saturated on the driver side. There was a lot of fuel under the hood. Probably 5 gallons or more. Do you suggest I run the truck to see if it starts getting more fuel to that injector or should i not run the truck.
When the try reved very high, I jumped out of it and was standing behind it so I couldnt see the tach. I would say it was pinned on the stopper though. Well over 3000 RPM

That sucks.
I'd try starting it today just long enough to tell if it is still knocking. Could have fuel in a cylinder that was near hydrolock causing the knock. If that's the case it should have bled down overnight. I wouldn't let it run for long until you figure out for sure what is going on.
I couldnt resist starting the truck this morning. I started it up, nothing unusual. The loud and obvious knock is gone. Now it is idling ruff although steady rpm. The stick vibrates like crazy and the stacks are blowing blueish white smoke. No a lot but enough to see. It seems to run good when I hit the gas. I cant tell if there is a faint knock coming from the engine or not but if there is it is very quiet. Any new suggestions on whats going on.

It will take you a few mile to purge the lines of air. Check your water bottle to make sure that there is no oil in it.
I took a video so you could hear the idle and see the smoke. Let me know what you think. Its been idling for 20 mins and no changes still blue, white, or grey smoke.
Have you got any signs of oil or fuel in the down pipe? With stacks you won't see anything dripping out a tailpipe like the rest of us would. Pulling and dumping the intercooler also sounds like a good idea just to be on the safe side.
It's hard to comment on the shake of the stick since we don't know what it was like before. It's possible you've just got air in the fuel rails, but I've seen several trucks that happened on and they didn't smoke like that. If the smoke started after the over rev, a compression test sounds like a good idea.

Box of beer on there being liquid diesel in the bottom of the intercooler.
You drink beer from a box? I always thought you might be a little strange
You've got to admit this leak had to squirt in a 1 in a million shot. Saturate the filter enough to cause it to drip, have the drip / fumes sucked in by the turbo while running, then run away. Since the 6637 doesn't have an internal mesh, you would think the paper filter would have collapsed and been sucked into the turbo (to the OP, you have checked and changed your filter, right?)
I'm not convinced there would be puddles of fuel in the CAC since I'm thinking it was the fumes off the saturated filter and most, if not all of the fuel would have been consumed during the over rev, but it would be wise to pull it and check.
Bad news. I started the truck again tonight and the knock is back. Now it is pouring out white greyish smoke very thick. Looks like dp-tuners lope tune. Is it possible that my pcm is screwed. I did mention that my dp-tuner quit working and i think it might have affected my pcm
