To physically determine if a hydraulic lifter is bad, you can perform a few checks. First, listen for abnormal engine noises like ticking or tapping, which may indicate a lifter not pumping up properly. Next, you can remove the valve cover and inspect the lifters for signs of wear or damage, such as scoring or excessive play. Additionally, checking for oil flow and pressure to the lifters during operation can help identify if they are functioning correctly.

87 Chevy S10 28l V6 and one lifter collapsed and warped the pushrod Can you just change that one bad lifter and do you have to take off the intake manifold to get the lifter out please help?
You can change just the one lifter, however you should determine why it went bad. The intake manifold must come off to get to the lifter. Is there advanced mileage? do you change the oil regularly? Seeing how it is an 87 vehicle, with 19 years of use on the engine, I would strongly suggest changing the full set. Be carefull though as there is the possibility on that engine of 2 different size lifter bores. If yours are oversized it will be stamped on the lifter bore (not on the lifter) 0.25mm 0.5 There should also be a white paint mark at the bore.
