Ya, you are going to need a new cam & lifters. FEs dont have a oiling issue unless you run high rpm for long periods of time. And its easily fixed by buying a plug to put in the oil galley in the head under the rocker stand. Drill a .090 size hole in a 5/16 plug & that is plenty of oil up top. U cut it to a 1/3 of what it originally dus. It directs the rest of the oil through the lower end. Otherwise the only issue is the oil dousnt drain back to the pan as fast as it gets pumped up to the rockers. Restricting it they are good to go. Ur guna need a new cam.
The bottom of that lifter is concaved. He has to replace ALL of the lifters AND the camshaft. The cam that was pushing the worned lifter may also be worned.
@RobertBurroughs-qw7uw Here's the crazy thing, it works great! My buddy said the same thing so I hooked up a battery to it. Cranked over, pumped up the lifter, valve actuates full lift, 195psi on the cylinder. I was pleasantly surprised
The 406 was a better FE than the 428. Same block but different crankshaft. 406 internal balanced. 428 External.

I've got a lifter ticking after the engine gets real hot. Maybe i'll try replacing it with that tool.
Wow you have more problems than that
