A hydraulic cam should have the same lift on intake and exhaust. You can tell nothing by the gear type. trucks are the only ones to use aluminum gears originally. I have used hyd lifters on solid cams a couple of times and they worked fine. Make sure you fill and bleed them first as per shop manual or you can trap air in lifter and end up with noisy lifters.
