D19 Diesel Issues

 I have been having some issues with my D19 Diesel. I rebuilt the engine a few years back and had it running super nice. I let the cousin use it to work up a field and had to tow it home. It broke the ball stud off for the advance in the injection pump. I took the pump and injectors off and sent them to the pump shop. When i put the pump and injectors back on i took apart and cleaned out the fuel system as there was lots of metal flakes in the fuel tank. It would now run but would not fire on #1 cylinder until it got to 160 degrees. Once it got up to temp it would run ok but was smoking a lot and was getting the top of the stack wet with diesel. I removed the head and found a few exhaust vales that where not sealing so i had the head rebuilt again with all new parts. Got the head back on and it runs better but not 100%. It fires on #1 right away and smokes less but still smokes more than it did before the injection pump broke and is still getting the top of the stack wet with diesel. So im asking the experts do you think the injectors are causing the wet stacking issue or is there something else that would cause it? When i had the injectors at the diesel shop they tested them and said they where good. With all the metal flakes that was in the tank i would have to think that some of them would have had to go through the injectors and messed up the tips.    

Did you remember to line up the two marks under the cover on the pump before you removed it to be rebuilt? Otherwise, get your compression gauge out and check the suspect holes.

you could also try switching injectors with other cylinders and see if the problem follows.
