Let's change boil to simmer .You could use the propane to heat the pan the oil is in (not as good as hotplate )The only way this procedure works is with hot oil .In the old days we used to soak them in gasoline but that would probably have the Porsche police descending .
I would not put a torch directly on a lifter .Does stuff to the structure .
As far as the clank -I thought the tensioner was stuck and also the contact point on the arm was partially worn away ?Don't think removing the pan will reveal much -although good to check screens for sealant -debris etc .

You can't see the ims tube from there, but I think that it would be wise to do that anyway. Just to check that there is no debries....

So I just installed the 1-3 cams & head cover... pretty easy once you get the cams lines up and the holder in place. I didn't take that many pictures because I was in the zone. I got the IMS bearing today and it looks different from my first bearing. I will be installing it this evening. I will take pictures for sure.

Update: Finally got the new IMS bearing installed!! It was a PITA let me tell you. Below are some pics of the bearing install and I became to disassemble the 4-6 bank. So far so good, I had to call it quits for the night since my knees were about to give out from kneeling.
It feels like I am making some decent progress now, still waiting on the tensioners and intake manifold gaskets to come in. I have to measure and see how much life is left on my clutch disc. Anyone know of any methods to "freshen up" the pressure plate and flywheel? There appears to be slight glazing on the FW. Thanks!

Nice work. Did you try to call me last night, sorry I wasn't near the phone and saw it really late (or early your time).
Torque for those bolts... yes 7.5 ft lbs.
