what I know is that ppl are always claiming to be from the 10 tribes, and anthropologists are always bringing as "evidence" extremely tenuous similarities of native language or customs to ancient hebrew and jewish rites. as the shvotim were deliberately dissipated and assimilated among the nations (as opposed to simply exiled as a group to a distant land), it is highly unlikely that they were able to retain any semblance of their own customs and language anywhere.

please read yair davidiy's books or website britam.
He is a Ger Tzedek living in EretzYisrael.
Of course, everything will clear up when moshiach comes, but his claims are very insightful.

(1) There is a machlokes in the gemorah if they were already brought back

(2) There is a machlokes if they will come back assuming they weren't

(3)The Steipler was asked how is it possible they weren't discovered with satellites etc. yet. He answered that even before satellites, the world was sufficiently explored that such a group could not have remained hidden. Therefore if they still exist it must mean that Hashem wants them to remain hidden. If Hashem wants something hidden, satellites and other searches won't find them.
