Dont forget, It is real easy to OHM from the IDM connection to the injectors to rule them out. I wish it was still located in the same spot on our truck just for that reason.

My injectors buzzed good but ohmed high on the pass side. # 1 and 7. It was the UVC harness. Since I had the cover off to do the GP's, I replaced it. Amiller once had me ohm from the IDM to rule out: Wire harness from IDM to Injectors.
This will cover an piece of wire in between and rule out your IDM as the route cause of your problems. If everything OHMS good forward of the IDM, then start working backwards and look at the IDM itself.
