Is there such a thing as a owners manual for the 98 8.3 325 hp? If so where can I find it?

Call Cummins with the engine serial or your VIN. They can tell you more than you'll ever want to know. Gut feel says if it is an ISC it is ECM controlled. ISC should also be on the valve cover, somewhere. C 8.3 is the previous version and a mechanical control.
When you contact Cummins, consider purchasing the manual.

The ISCs I've seen have ISC bigtime somewhere on the valve cover. The C8.3 doesn't. The data plate is below the valve cover on the curbside.

Well, Banks does list a kit for the '98-'03 ISC on their site so I guess it might be an electronic model.

Pretty sure that you have a C8.3 325 HP like the one in my 98 American Eagle.
1998 was the last year that the C8.3 was built for use in a DP.
The 99 8.3 block was the debut of the ISC.
It seems unlikely that a 98 coach would have a 99 engine installed (much more likely to have a 98 coach with either a 97 or 98 engine installed).
Looks like deandec found the manual for you and got me an electronic copy.
Thanks Dean!
