She won't even give me his social security number after she had told me that she had misplaced the policy and I know she is lying about that.

If you are the beneficiary of your father's life insurance policy, the life insurance company should talk to you. If you are not, they should not. Are you sure that your father did not change the beneficiary to your step mother?
It is not at all clear why you would need your father's social security number. The widow's social security benefits are affected by his death. Yours are only if you are a disabled adult child who was disabled before and after age 18 and your father applied for SSDI on your behalf in your early 20s.
