I have a Keeley Ultra Boss DS-1, been thinking of adding an OD or something to help get more sustain and other things. What do you all recommend? It will be played through a Peavey tube amp

Well, there's always the TS-9. Hard to beat, at that price. The Blues Driver is also very good. The Maxon OD-808 is very good. Can't go wrong with any of them. If you want something a bit more boutiquey, there's lots of guys doing from-scratch and mod work.
I'd go with a Blues Driver but the Tubescreamer is very nice and warm if that's your thing you are looking for
and therein lies the problem...I want all of them! But to be mroe simplistic...a nice Hendrix/McCready colouring would be real nice. Like on Machine Gun when he just holds the note forever, but not so much sustain that it destroys the dynamics.

Fuzzes are extremely personal, first find out what type of fuzz you want first. Hendrix used both Germanium PNP Fuzz faces and Silicon NPN Fuzz Faces. The first being warm and round and the latter being more distorted and snarly.
Keep in mind Amplifier distortion and picking dynamics play a big role in all of these sounds, so a compressor allows you to play harder without distortion which is nice in settings where big volume is not really an option.
