From the Jabiru Overhaul manual.
2.13.14 Solid lifters
• 2200 and 3300 engines earlier than serial number [22A-2068] or [33A-961] utilise solid lifters driven by a 330° camshaft.
2.13.15 Hydraulic lifters
• 2200 and 3300 engines from serial number [22A-2068] or [33A-961] use hydraulic lifters.
2.13.16 Roller Followers
• 2200 and 3300 engines from serial number [22A-3596] or [33A-2539] use hydraulic lifters with roller bases.
Its been said that the early hydraulic lifters had performance problems. Not sure if they resolved it before coming out with the roller base lifters.
