Hey G ... or anybody who knows here... am trying to lift while working around some developing pain inside the left shoulder.
Thought maybe it was a rotator cuff, but lifting my arms above my shoulder don't seem to irritate it much -- military presses are pretty pain-free.
The worst pain comes on the "scarecrow" exercise - arms straight out like your body was a T, drop your forearms down with palms backward, looking like a scarecrow... even with no weight in the left hand, rotating that forearm to point skyward can 'lock up' and cause a lot of pain.  That precise motion definitely isolates the problem.
Side lateral raises are iffy; front lateral raises are fine.
..........
Diagnosis?  Suggested weightlifting motions for the shoulder?
