How to check for a 6.0L oil leak?

To locate the smallest leaks close the shutoff valve on the tool to seal the system. If desired, a scan tool can be used to monitor air pressure in the system by observing the ICP sensor reading. To prevent costly comebacks, we recommend air checking every 6.0L for high-pressure oil leaks after any part of the system has been disassembled.

What kind of oil pump does Ford F350 6.0 have?

I have been working on this pain in the butt 2006 Ford F350 6.0 turbo diesel for a week straight (time added up).
