Sure. Lots of tool. A few special tools for overhaul. You remove heads from cylinders. Remove valves. Rework seats and valves or replace.

What is your issues however that you think that needs to be done?

See youtube and search.

You have modifications like adjustable push rods?

I doubt your hearing seat face.
Now if valve is leaking bad enough, especially intake, will create a problem in the air and fuel intake.

Do an old fashion warm compression test, with throttle blocked wide open. If it's off, do a leak down test. You can here it if seats are bad in intake or exhaust pipe.

Sounds like whoever told you that was looking for his next boat payment or he's just a part changer and not experienced with overhauls.

Most are not since that deep, most replace engines rebuild by shops that do that.
