Its easy to meter out the glowplugs through the valve cover harness connectors. Just see if they measure a few ohms, or open circuit.
I strongly recommend rigging up a mechanical hpop gauge. You can also do a leakdown test on the hpop system with a porta-power pump. There's a good chance of a tired hpop at that mileage.
My E350 van caused me all kinds of grief, and in the end, replacing the hpop and ipr made it start reliably again.
