Major issues need help for a friend
I have never owned a 6.0 so I am not familiar wih all of their issues, but I need your help to help a friend. He just got he truck back from major repairs and now has more problems. At the mechanic the truck got 2 new injectors, new Ficm, hpop, egr delete, oil cooler, and possibly new icp. Got the truck back and it runs worse. He other day had to floor it and it would hardly move, but hat went away, so we thought. I drove the other day and same thing happened. Made it home but idle was extremely rough, wanted to stall in drive, but seemed better at idle. Parked truck and then it wouldn't start later. Now it starts but dies a few seconds later. there is. Sensor in front of the turbo with one wire to it that is leaking oil around the threads that I noticed today and the back of the motor is wet itch fresh oil. It is on the passenger side up by the hpop but I can't see that good enough to be sure. I need your guys help to try and save him another expensive repair at the mechanic.

Another symptom is that the oil pressure drops off t idle and comes back when running, did this before went to mechanic and it seemed fixed when we got it bck, but before the issues hike I was driving I noticed it was dropping off again at idle.
