Rhoads lifters wont solve the noise you think was caused by adding 4" dryer duct to the exhaust pipes... whatever caused that noise, it was completely unrelated to the lifters.
The #2 piston being installed in a different direction was not because of weight/balancing... it was most likely not done on purpose or for a "racing" reason, chances are whoever installed them just overlooked it. There is no reason or benefit to install 1 piston opposite of the others.
