OM606 re-timing of injection pump: diesel fuel in engine oil

Fellas,
I posted on here a bit ago regarding my engine stalling out when the brakes were applied and it starting hard. OM606 stalling after brakes applied
My original indy mechanics doing the work told me that there was nothing else they could do with the car and that I should have it sent to the dealer. The dealer called me back today and said that the timing chain didn't jump and that its fine. However, they said that the injection pump must be "retimed" when the timing chain is replaced. They said they found diesel fuel in the engine oil.
Is this correct? I figured since it was an electronic pump that the computer would just reset itself to the correct timing. What am I missing?
This is going to cost me $2700.
