one time when I adjusted my hydraulic lifters, I took one of my pushrods out to look at the end, and I don't recalling seeing a hole in the center of the pushrod, that I looked at...

are the 2.9's pushrods suppose to be hollow, on the inside, for oil flowing to the rocker arms...

if the 2.9 pushrods are suppose to be hollow, on the insdide, do they ever get closed up, so you wouldn't notice seeing any hole there...

how does the 2.9 engine valve's rocker arm shaft get lubricated... is there an oil passage way leading to them, up through the engine head, from the engine block...
 
No the pushrods are not used to feed oil.

Oil is fed to the rocker shaft through an oil passage that comes up through one of the rocker shaft pedestals
