anyone have recent experience with the Dorman gaskets and harnesses? OEM will have to order and Riff Raff is out of stock on the harness.

I just did the passenger side with a Dorman /https://www.oreillyauto.com/search/1995/ford/f-250
They had it in stock. I’ve driven it about 600 miles, no problems. They are not really all that hard to change so I decided to go this route for now (I was a little financially challenged from Christmas) I’ll see how it goes and maybe pick up an OEM in the spring.
You may want to look on diesel o-ring’s site for the Ford ones if you want to go with them.

UPDATE: Received my parts from Riff Raff big shout out to them for getting them shipped as soon as I ordered them. Also, got everything back together and running great! Engine sounds smoother than before I started having the major problem, now wondering if I may have had an issue with that connector for awhile now and it finally just decided to crap out completely. Thanks to all who responded with helpful information.

It wasn't a Dorman harness or gasket. Was original OEM that came on the truck since new! So I would say it served its purpose for quite some time.

Yep me too! Seems smoother than before it shut down completely. Wondering if the connected had been faulty for awhile.
