Ok, I took lifter and push rod out. No bleed hole in lifter. So I'll try cutting a small groove in the seat like your photos. Will that cause oil to spray up through the groove into the lifter galley and even possibly drop the oil pressure a small amount? Also, since I have things tore apart, do you think I should groove all the push rod seats in the lifters?
