I had the same exact issue, same truck and engine but it ended up being my EGR cooler. Best of luck.

They have improved those 2 lines and made them rubber instead of plastic. Only like $25 or so each. All Cascadia owners should swap them out at home base.

Pressure test the EGR cooler. There's a Detroit tool they cap it off with and then pressurized with air. Note: you're NOT pressure testing the cooling system. Some newbie mechanics won't get it. If it's leaking it's likely dumping coolant downstream into your One-Box, which is highly corrosive strainer the precious metals inside it. That's a $20,000 repair at the end of the day.
You could also remove the inlet pipe at the back of the cooler and most likely coolant will be evident.
