Gotcha, good deal. Sounds like either rust stained fuel or simply old from lots of sitting in high heat conditions and a little water in it.
I’ve ran much nastier fuel, but if in doubt drain it out. You probably won’t hurt that lift pump with that fuel, I’ve seen fuel so filthy it’d make you...
Well let me back up a little, diesel nationwide has always appeared green to me, except in California it was crystal clear like water last September when I visited.
Generally speaking, if you allow diesel to sit in a dark environment without water or outside contamination it generally will stay...
I’d drain that, toss it, have the tank professionally cleaned and call it a day. That’s rust stained and nasty, any water in your tank will sit at the bottom and continue to rust the tank when the truck is stationary, then push the rust particulate throughout the fuel system causing premature...
This kit covers everything in #22 of the diagram. I know by experience it fits the 8.3 trucks, Standard SS296 compressor is on both NHC and 8.3s so I think the kit will handle an NHC. Others can chime in

I didn’t have beads in my kit, that is actually your “aftercooler” and your true drier is located after it.
It’s main purpose is to try to cool the air and condense moisture out of it before it reaches the actual drier so you get cleaner, drier air and longer life span from the actual drier...
Okay, sounds like CTIS hub seals are toast. I believe the job is straight forward, only struggle may be setting CTIS hub seals proper depth like the old m939a2 trucks

Also, you can blow a little air out of your valve stem on LF and RF Tires to see if oil blows out of the valve, if it does it’s time to dig in
