6.0 white smoke problem

Having problem with my 04 f-250 6.0 blowing out white smoke only for about a minute after it is first started.seems to be coolant because if i turn the truck off and take the cap off the degas bottle to release the coolant pressure then the next time i start the truck she wont smoke.but if i leave it with the pressure built up then she will smoke next time start and have a dragging start.i have already done arp studs and gaskets and egr delete so was wondering if there was someway the coolant could get past the injector o-rings and into the cylinder.thanks for any help!
