Had to stop these b/c of elbow pain, so I searched for exercises that did not hurt. The neutral grip seems to be fine in terms of pulling/pressing

I don't know precisly what's causing your elbow pain, but when I was training Westside-style, pushdowns caused mine. I had to completely stop doing them it hurt so bad. Bench never gave me any pain though, I'm not sure if that advice will help.
Last time I had this it was from benching with too narrow of a grip. I think I will have to widen my CG bench grip a few inches just to keep things happy. I don't do many pushdowns anyways.
