Stuck valve remedy?

Due to infrequent use our 1950 eight (288) has a stuck valve in cylinder #1. We tried daily driving for the past month with Sea Foam in oil and gas with no success un-sticking the valve. Is it possible to solve the issue with just the head removed or it there more to it? I have found no procedure in any of the service manuals I have except to state sticky valves can be a problem. I would certainly appreciate any advise/direction to get me started. I have all the gaskets sets, I think, necessary to get down to remove and replace the valve cover.
