How do you remove the oil pump on these? I already removed the distributor and the two oil pump cap screws. But it's not budging.
Most likely someone used Permatex. Just a tap sideways with a brass hammer is usually enough.

Visual inspection of the bottom surface is far more important than the pliers test. A lifter can test OK with the pliers and bottom be too worn to reuse.
