I'll let someone else field the Li-fene question, but as far as Pitedah 
is concerned:  there's a sheva there because tet and dalet are both 
dentals, per the practice noted on p. 11 of Maher in the case of 
"mitpalelim."  I suppose that would be a sheva na'.  The sheva is our 
friend, and it's here to help.

My two cents, I defer to Those Who Know, etc. etc.
