Discovered EWT/EOT 2.7* split after cold soak. Which temp probe to change first? Water temp was closer to ambient. Suspect oil temp probe.
Here's a chance to put in your $00.02 worth.
8* spread on hiway, so well within spec.

no offense but aint it supposed to be egt vs. eot? u sure tats the correct reading?
btw, if ur delta is about 8 degrees on highway, it's ok. oh, and ur 8 degree delta, is it with load or without? if with load, then ur great. if without, ur still ok. no worries.

The OP listed EWT/EOT, which I assumed was water and oil temps. Usually ECT/EOT are used, coolant and oil temps.
As stated, 8 degrees is fine, when you start seeing over 15 degrees separation during steady state operation is when you should be concerned.

But lets say you want to try to improve it anyway. First thing to do is to reverse their application. They are the exact same sensor, so just swap them. Then check your cold soak and see if the inaccuracy swapped locations. If it did not, then there probably is an actual difference in temp after a cold soak. Maybe soak longer? If the inaccuracy did swap, then get one new sensor and change one of them. Either one, doesn't matter. Then see if it is corrected. If not, swap it with the other one.
But I think you'll be chasing your own tail for no good purpose.
EGT? WTH did that have to do with it?

the temps are also dependent on the load carried as well, from consulting the ford bulletins. my 2 cents.

On flat level ground at 60 mph after heat saturation my deltas are roughly the same loaded or unloaded. 4 to 8 degrees.
