If I pull the intake manifold can I see the valve stems enough to determine they’re status?

Yes, you can see the guides and back of the valves through the ports. Hope you are ok!

Seems way easier than pulling the head again!

This went from unsolved to solved back to unsolved.

You can put each cyl at TDC and apply 15 psi air to the plug hole.
Low pressure is to prevent the engine rotating, I do this on my briggs engine in a tractor, you can hear it.
