I still was getting p0205 and p0305 error codes but when I took off the manifold cover I discovered that at some point the wires were taped and there is a slight nick on the wire. Wondering if I should just tape her up again and keep the separate or try to replace and replace the wire which I have

I would tape them up, or cut the cut area and use a heat shrink connector.
No avail. Started her up got the engine warm drove a bit things were good. Turned her off waited a few min then started her again and codes came back on. Looks like om gonna have to replace the injectors. Seems like it's the last thing to do

I wonder if it is possible in the wire inside the is damaged?
It doesn't look deep enough to have damaged the wire, but looks can be deceiving in a photo like that. But it would certainly be reasonable to cut the wire at the nick and butt splice it back together. That would 'refresh' the insulation, too.

That's why I suggested to cut and heat shrink a splice connector, you never know if corrosion might have gotten in there either.

Agreed, just trying to rule things out.

I fixed the problem it could have been a contributing issue but about to post how I changed out the injectors and that solved the problem ultimately after testing with a noid light it flashed so decided to go ahead and change the injectors
