If you've never seen the machine play how do you know what's normal?

So I'm going through my PB and I'm trying to figure out what's normal.  I know that one of my thumper bumpers isn't working so I need to trouble shoot that.  The top row though I'm not sure about.  Does anyone know if the top row bumpers in a Space Invaders machine are thumper bumpers?  Youtube videos would indicate that they aren't, but I'm not sure they just sort of seem to beep when the ball goes by.  Normal?

TopJimmyCooks:
you can see if there's a virtual pinball table

I have used those in the past especially to find out if sounds are missing from the sound board. 

The top row of bumpers on SI I think is scoring only, not pops.  you can tell by looking at them - see if they have solenoids underneath or not.

:    Flippers (4), Pop bumpers (3), Passive bumpers (4), Slingshots (2), Standup targets (6), 3-bank drop targets (1), Solitary drop target (1), Spinning target (1), Captive ball (1), Horseshoe lane (1). Animated infinity lights are behind a specially-mirrored backglass. Electronic sound. 3 or 5 ball play.
