If you are unconformable tapping the rocker arms over the valves, You can 
probably push them open,  Try it on one where the push rod is lose.
You probably will want a small piece of wood or similar to push against.  I 
have placed the end of a hammer handle  on the rocker arm and pushed on the 
hammer head with both hands and open valves.   If you can do it o a few it 
will show you the force needed on the others.  If one sticks open oil it, 
if one sticks and will not open, oil it and tap it and try again.

JH-
   I believe that you are correct.  The rods at #1 must have 
been  compressed and, therefore, exhibit that "stiffness" as 
described.   While I would rather that it  not be the case, I am beginning 
to  think that, ultimately, I will have to pull the head.  This is a  heavy 
and time consuming chore, but it looks as if I (or someone with  better 
skills and experience) will have to do this (Dammit!).
   I will let you know what transpires.
