however the diesel smell that I thought just
needed to "air out" is not only lingering - but permeating everything

You may want to check to be sure your vent hoses are OK.  Also check to
make sure none of the fuel hoses are "weeping"(leaking but not dripping.)
You may also want to see if there are any wood panels that are saturated.

I would rent or buy an ozone generator for a few days.  let it run full
blast as long as you are not on-board.

Ah, the glorious odor of Diesel. Love it or leave it. To me it's
just great!
