roller lifter

I'm in the process of replacing the intake gaskets on my car and being I have the intake off I'll also be replacing a lifter that I dont trust. I was just wondering if I have to cover it with break in lube or if i just can soak it over night in oil??? Its a Comp 885-2 Retro roller lifter pair for a 280XFI roller cam.

A coating of oil is fine.
