When we replaced the lifters in my car we ended up ripping mine. I went to the dealer and got a new one for like $6.
I don't know if it's needed but...It's called the "last chance filter" for a reason I presume.

Not worth chancing having to pull the heads off over a 6.00 part IMHO.
I had to pull the heads a replace the DOD lifters. PITA

To the OP: Im sure you would be fine. I would really try to make it work as like I said earlier, it must have been put there for a reason. I am very cautious about the internals of my engine.
The collapsed lifter could have played a part in that
12 Hours of work and pulling a head, the Rear one at that has me on edge about everything.On a side note, It's insane how light our aluminum heads are. I know it's obvious, their aluminum but....DAMN
