I'd say your biggest symptom you have faulty injectors is that you have a 6.0!

Other than that, rough idle and smoking is what tipped me off BOTH times I had a bad injector... Of course that could also be the turbo, which is also apparently prone to fail on the 6.0's...

I had excessive black smoke rough idle. There is an injector test that the dealer can do to tell you which injectors are bad.
