All I know is that some early 24V were susceptible to the KDP issue, and some were manufactured with a stepped case which supposedly won't allow the pin to fall into anything critical. Mine is a 1999, so naturally I'm a little concerned, and for peace of mind will be taking a look at it soon. At best, I have a stepped case and I'm safe, at worst it is still in place and either hasn't and won't, or hasn't and will.

 

If it helps, I have a 1999 and did have the stepped case in mine. But I did go back and re-torque the case bolts just to be safe.

What’s the best way to get to the kdp? 

 

Pull the timing cover off the front of the motor. I pulled the front of the truck apart when i did check mine.
