There is a egr cooler on pass side of engine below intake.
These are a common prob on 6.0 coolant leaks will pour out exhaust. If it is a desiel leak into coolant jar this will be head gskt leak.

My Son In Law has a F350 with a 6.0 and he has used this guy. Says he's good. Last trip in SIL thought he had injector problems but this guy dug in and found a burned/shorted spot in the harness. Could have gotten SIL for a bunch but didn't and fixed it at a fair price.

I would definitely check out the EGR cooler first...it is extremely common for it to cause this on a 6.0L Ford/VT365 International....
