I built engines for about 6 years prior to joining the navy and every now and then we would have a customer who wanted to reuse old lifters and some of them would be "stuck" we would put them in a vice and bleed them all the way down and in they stuck anywhere we would soak them in solvent (kerosene works well) and then bang them on the work bench till the plunger came up, it didn't always work but it would be worth a try.
