If you have AE or a scan gauge I would run all the tests you can. KOER, Cylinder Contribution, Buzz test...
I don't know if it will tell you if an oring is bad though... I doubt you have an Oring issue? How is your ICP #'s? Do they look ok?

When i put AE on the truck about a week ago, my ICP maintained 2950 psi at 37% DC.
So like i said, if i had an oring, couldnt it cause a hard start issue?

Well, i definitely have some good smoke, when i give it some throttle, it smokes like a freight train. and cruising it is smoking but not as bad. but it seems to be starting fine.

Good point Grant.. Anyone?
I inspected the truck some more here at the house, and im not getting oil where the exhaust manifold and uppipes mate at. The smoke is just a slight haze when cruising but when i give it some throttle, the cloud of blue smoke is heavy. trucks starts fine, and idles fine, doesnt seem to have a miss. Im leaning towards turbo oring failure

that is true, since the orings separate the oil to the fuel then down to the cylinders...
