Help...6.7 CTD smoking (update: Cracked injector)

Took the truck out for the 4th of July on a long haul and now my truck is blowing white smoke during acceleration. I'm completely stock and don't abuse my truck. All fluids and gauges look good. What could cause this?

    How many miles are on your truck?


    31K, mostly highway. Do you think I damaged it pulling the fifth wheel? I traveled 400 miles round trip at 60-65 mph. Everything seemed fine and I don't remember any issues. I've never redlined it or had any issues until now.

    I'll have to check in the morning. I've just noticed it while driving around recently.

    On other forums I'm also reading that it could be the turbo or seal around it.
