It hasn't hydrolocked yet I know that, but it does have a little fuel smell which I figured stuck injector, I also studded the heads, but the steam goes away and comes back

Sometimes like steam, then when it's not steaming it's like deisel, with blue smoke, I put the truck together started it, started easy, steamed a little bit then went away, which it had blowed head gaskets on it is why I tore it apart, had the heads checked and they were good, after the steam when away after running for maybe twenty min, I smelt fuel comming out the exaust and it was a bluish smoke, so I drove it for maybe seventy miles and it cleared up, it would come back a little when I would stop and take offf but all fuel no steam, I flushed the coolant system and started and it started steaming agian really badly

Head gaskets come from ford, I just read online that, take the egr sensor out and if it is wet or looks like it has a steam residue on it then the egr is still leaking, I took it out after this all started and if I remember right it was wet, so that is probably my trouble if it is wet, it should be dry inside the intake correct

Could I have rolled a injecter o ring in the injector cup? Could it be leaking fuel into the cylinder that way

If the intake is wet yes your egr cooler is cracked and leaking and somehow getting past the weld job done to bkock it off I would think. Yes quite possible you rolled or clipped an oring going back in with the injectors.
