That FORD 6.0 engine is PURE JUNK. I am willing to bet the the EGR cooler is not the only issue you had. They are known to also to crack heads when the cooler dumps water into the motor. Have also seen cracked piston skirts on them when they hydro lock. Could be turning hard.
You can try the starter but I bet that you are still getting water into the motor. Pull the glow plugs and let it set over night. Then crank it and see if you get water out of them.
Got two friends that are stuck with Ford 6.0 diesel motors. Neither can hardly give the truck away. So they are stuck trying to keep them running. The one just keeps repairing his at the average cost of $3-4K each year. The other finally bought a school bus with the 6.0 in it. He switched everything out of the bus into his pickup. He used the bus harness/computer. He got the gauges to work and the rest of the truck to function. He just took the original harness and computer out. I don't know exactly what he did but he has not had an issue now for the 3-4 years since he put the bus setup in it.
My understanding is that the motors ran too hot in the pickups and that caused the problems.

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
