(b) The ECU is telling the injector to close, but the injector reads as open

In other words, code 14 means that the ECU believes that the injector is stuck either open or closed.
Based on your earlier description of running very rich, and Phil's description of how the computer reads code 11, it may well indicate that injector #1 is stuck open all the time.

Maybe you have already checked this, most of what you describe is logical and thorough, but have you checked that all injectors are clicking?

Put a screwdriver tip on each injector and the handle to your ear, you will hear the clicking. If #1 is stuck open it should not click.
