They all should just pull out, may have some suction holding them in place as oil drained out of head

Give them a wiggle(break the seal) and pull hard

Ok thanks when installing the new ones is there a way they should go in? Like should the hole on the lifter be faced a certain way?

No, they rotate when engine is running so as long as the pointy end is up all is well
