Try something like this:
declare @DTInt int, @DTString varchar(20);
select @DTInt = 23052008;
select @DTString = cast(@DTInt as varchar(20));
select cast(stuff(stuff(right(stuff(@DTString, 5, 0, left(@DTString, 2)), 8), 3, 0, '/'), 6, 0, '/') as datetime);

Run a DML trace on the database. Check out sp_trace_create in BOL.
