Thinking out loud here, thook...would a possible (and easiest) way to check if a valve is bent - with the head still on - with the valve cover off already - take the exhaust manifold off, spray a carb or brake cleaner through a valve port and see if it leaks out the other side?
I used this technique (mind you with the head already on the ground) when checking my valves after a timing chain failure.
I dunno, perhaps the least invasive.
