RE: how to tell which lifter
remove all of your rockers and push the pushrods down as hard as you can into each lifter... the one thats not pumping up is the one you will be able to move the easiest. each lifter should have a slight amount of give to it... but will suddenly feel like it stops

lifters that are filled with oil are pretty damn hard to push down..... good luck with that one[8D]

the one thats not pumping up is the one that will be easy do depress
