The Nfieldgear catalog shows several different rocker arm assemblies that fit the Iron Barrel engine. Notice I said assemblies because they include the upper and lower blocks that the rocker arm runs in. They are also sold only as sets so they will include both the exhaust and the intake valve rockers along with the blocks they run in.
(As a side bonus, replacing those blocks may quiet your engines valve noise too.)
Now, before jumping on the bandwagon first you need to study both the exhaust and the intake valve rocker arms where they would contact the valve stem "lash cap" as Ice calls it (find no 18 in the exploded drawing) carefully.
Bear in mind I haven't been into a Iron Barrel engine so when I mentioned a hardened piece attached to the rocker arm it was an engineering based guess.
The pictures in the Nfieldgear catalog seem to reinforce it because there appears to be a circular disk on the ones shown in the catalog but that may be my mind wanting to see something there.
Anyway, you need to see if both of the rocker arms look exactly the same where they would contact the valve lash caps.
If they both look exactly the same you probably do not need to buy new rocker arm assemblies.
If one has a little hardened button and the other one doesn't you will need new rocker arm assemblies.
The rocker arm assemblies shown in the catalog are available as "Premium Aluminum Alloy Rocker Block Assemblies" ($64.95) or, "High Performance Rocker Assemblies" with steel blocks ($99.95), or "Ultimate Steel High Performance Rockers" with steel blocks ($84.95). (Note: the catalog I have is over a year old so the prices may have changed).
These rocker arm assemblies will NOT fit the AVL models so you should call the folks at Nfieldgear at 1-800-358-0938 and tell them exactly what your engines serial numbers are and exactly what your problem is. They should have the new gaskets you need too while your on the phone.
Getting back to your valves:
If the rocker arms look exactly alike where they contact the valve stem the "lash cap" may be missing.
Both valves should have this cap so look at the ends of both valve stems. You do not have to take the valve springs off to see them as they are right on top.
Again, both valves should have the caps and they should look exactly the same.
If one valve stem looks smaller and different the cap is missing.
I don't see these caps offered in the catalog but when you call Nfieldgear they should be able to sell you one.
If the rocker arms are the same and both valves have their stem caps you don't need to buy anything. The push rod may have been too loose and jumped out of position.
