I am not aware of a way to pull a lifter out through the head on an OHV motor but maybe I'm wrong.

You're probably right, maybe they just saw the lifter broken and came to that conclusion? Like I said before there is a part on back order something to do with the fuel line or something and isn't repair completely yet. I'm going to give a call later and see what's going on with that back ordered part.
