Lifter has a more tinny sound to it and it should be loudest when your head in under the hood. Rod knock sounds more like someone tapping a ball pen hammer on the side of the block, it is a more solid sounding knock. That is why it is called lifter tap and rod knock. The rod knock will be louder with your head under the car than it is with your head under the hood.
