You could have blown a head gasket, but probably not. You probably cracked your injector sleeves. You need to have the cooling system pressure tested with the injectors out. You'll also need to find mechanic with the special tap for the sleeves if they're bad. Try not go to Ford; they charge a ton to fix them. The parts are not expensive, just the labor. Be sure the mechanic knows about proper care of the coolant system afterward since the diesel fuel quickly contaminates the coolant.
