I assume no water in cylinders since the engine kept running (and pumping water into your bilge :) ) ?
 
the engine ran perfectly fine. all temps were normal. i shut it down when i realized what was happening. the only way i knew what was happening wasn't from the engine shutting down or underperforming but i slowed to a stop and the water came forward and tripped high water alarm. just a few inches in bilge. time will tell......
 
And I thought diesels were expensive.... ouch

Looks like a cracked manifold and a blown out gasket on the riser.

But, with the camera angle and being so close up, hard to tell.
