This will have to be in the summer when temperatures are above 20 Celsius as DMSO freezes around 18 C. After which I'll fit a new inlet manifold. I've already mapped out the egr so hopefully the piston rings will remain clear of blockages.
That's interesting. Have you considered using Berryman B12 for the piston soak? It seems like it would be less harsh and people are reporting great results with the petrol engines. You could do it now too.

I have the berrymans but not sure if I have the mechanical skills to take the injectors in and out.

Any issues since you had the EGR mapped out? I'm planning on doing that too
