Should have a new injector from Cummins next week.

Thanks!

Oh dear god, NOOOOO!!!

Drain the coolant level below the head immediately, and/or return the injector to installed position as you are begging for trouble!
If you drain the coolant, insert a clean rag to keep any possible contaminants from the cylinder, including the errant dropping of a small tool/bolt/washer/anything. Open cylinders ALWAYS need protections from anything not intended to be introduced!
