Default starting issues

Hello, I am a returning user. It has been quite some time, but I did get a lot of advise and information. I have a 2006, F350, 4x4, XRP Head studs, 3" exhaust from the cat back, Banks Six Guns, Upgraded Turn down pipes on turbo and a Cobra after market remote start car alarm.
The issue that I am having now is that on a cold engine, it starts fine. When the truck gets warm, it will turn over but will not start. I have been told that it could be the HPOP, there is a fuel system pin hole leak or it could be the remote start module. I have had the remote start since I bought the truck new in 2006. I had the top end of the motor rebuilt in 2009 with all of the upgraded parts by a FORD diesel mechanic and have not had any issues since. I just had the EGOT replaced about 6 weeks ago. I am at a lose as to the reason it will not start when the motor is at operating temperature. Any help or advise as to what I can do or need to have done to fix this would be of appreciation. Thank you and HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

Gotta scan it and check high pressure oil psi. Need over500 to start. Did you unplug pressure sensor on valve cover? If it runs you have bad sensor. Hear it's not good to keep it going too long but will identify problem

Question

Ok gents, I have replaced the parts recommended and it is still doing the same thing. If I remove the oil sensor, it does not start. I changed the oil and replaced the oil filter with a Motorcraft, which I had in it, and there was oil in the bottom of the canister. How can I test the HPOP for correct pressure. Is there anything else it could be. There are NO codes showing. Please help, this one vehicle between the wife and I is getting old and rough!!!!

Get scan gauge 2 and see what high pressure desired vs actual is. That will tell u if u have pump problem or oil leak problem. Sometimes the pump just wears out. When oil is cold it's harder to push. As it heats up it thins out and easier to push past bad seal or worn pump.

Just wanted to report that I have finally got the work done. After all it was the O-rings, the SCT fitting, Dummy Plugs and the Stand pipes. I thank you all for the input and help!!!!
