I would absolutely have a vested interest in the repair of that truck, regardless of who's footing the bill. If I had to guess this repair as with my rebuild was coming with a "tail light" warranty. I was there at least weekly and called every other day to check progress and repair direction. They are only going to do what someone is going to pay for, which is business and I completely understand. I won't take my complaints and issues up with the repair facility, I for SURE took them up with the one holding the purse strings. My rebuild was going to be 100% right when it left, as should yours.

These aren't the "engines of old". I don't believe in the 'inspect for reuse' when you're this far into the internals...

Can you maybe elaborate more on what got it into the shop in the first place and to what direction they have gone thus far?

Fuel pressure 559. Pump had been updated not to long ago. Surely well within what Rawze suggested it be gone through. So I figured I had time before I had to open it up. It was very minimal flaking but enough to set the code. Nothing broke inside sending chunks. I seen all the parts. They are in floor board of my truck. New fuel pump. Oil cooler. Main rod set 4 engine flushes. Is what’s being done. Thankfully I have a backup truck. This is the truck that was suppose to be replaced with the new one so I am still able to run. Thanks again to Rawze for the link to the guy with updated pump failure. That was the reason I didn’t drive it with that code. I can only imagine the damage I would have done driving it in that shape. I took your advise. Anyways. Once I get it back I will end up flushing it more. Just so I know.
