Partial standpipe pic
My truck is an 04 with a build date of 1/04. I am in the process of replacing my HPOP and IPR and decided to go in and install the upgraded standpipes. I couldn't get them all out, only the top part came out. I know I have to remove the rail to get the rest but from the part I see, it is completely different than what I have seen online from various posts. Because of this I have yet to remove the oil rail. The end caps are square 1/2'' drive, not the 10 hex. Do I have odd ball standpipes? Should I even bother upgrading as my model year did not have the problems of the 05-07 regarding standpipes?

You are correct. You have the late '04/early '05 style standpipe and dummy rail plug combo that is NOT prone to failure. Not like the late '05 and up style that have a much higher propensity for failure. As far as whether to upgrade to the updated style with the white teflon rings or not, that's entirely up to you.
