Won't Start

Hello everyone, my first post so please take it easy on me i am a newb. I have researched a little and believe i have a leak in the high pressure oil system. My 2004 Excursion 6.0 will start when it is cold but after warming up will not start it just cranks over. So here is my question; the two wires leading from the Turbo had melted and shorted and in fixing that i loosened what i believe to be an oil line feeding the Turbo. Could this be the problem? Also is there an O-Ring that seats the line into the block that may need replaced? Thanks in advance!

Should post this over in the 6.0 Engine Forum - plenty of folks there with good knowledge. Stewart will probably move it there once he sees it.
