Well I pulled the valve cover and found seeping of oil into the injector harness and a broken plug. I'm going to replace the injustor harness and see what happens. Hope this is the fix. Any other ideas are welcome.
I've replaced so many cam sensors in pre-05 DTs not showing any codes that that's the first thing I do and most of the time that's the problem. It can cause random stalling and low power issues and not set a code. In the past I would remove a shim (if there was one) and try it again. The newest ones are a different design and I have had no issues with them. Second most frequent non-code issue is the rubber check ball above the 'rock catcher'. It's easy to inspect and will cause intermittent low power issues. Check your fuel pressure.
If it doesn't fit, FORCE it. If it breaks, well, it needed replacing anyway. Pullin' wrenches for 45 years.
