Let's say you know that a certain point on a data bus has a defective
device that is always trying to drive the bus low; Was wondering if anyone
has any good tricks in finding the defective device, other than
cutting/lifting pins?

Hang a CRO off each line in turn, & look for one that's stuck low. Once
you've found it, pulling chips out of their sockets is probably the
easiest way to find the culprit.
