It turned out to be the injectors

OK,
x5! Injectors, and do not go to the dealer that said it was the pump.

Well, you should only go to that dealer to slap them around for being stoopid.

you say its the injectors even if it runs perfectly fine, no loss of power and no smoke and what i mean by perfectly fine is it doesnt have any kind of miss or rough running like you wouldn't think anything is wrong

have you done any towing or put the truck under heavy load recently, cause usually that would make it throw a code, and diesel fuel...

My truck filled the crankcase with diesel and never smoked once. This time it does not have diesel in the crankcase and smokes at startup and idle.
It appears there may be two ways the injectors fail. One in which the engine smokes and no fuel in the oil and the other where it doesn't smoke so much and fuel is in the oil.
I would say you need to call around and feel out a few dealers, because it is the injectors.

mine did the same thing, my crankcase filled up with diesel and all the oil/diesel bled out my crank case breather tube staining my driveway. i never had any smoke, but it was the injectors. and yes they do fail 2 ways you are correct about that.
i just noticed u have 196k miles, hurry up and get those fixed. the injectors have a 7yr/200kMile warranty, looks like you got lucky

I never had any smoke, rough idle, or loss of power under normal driving. Just hard hot starts.
