In a HS game, if I notice a new pitcher in the circle as a result of a defensive position switch and it has not been reported, I change it on my lineup card. I don't see a need to confirm it with a coach or ask anybody about it. If I don't notice the switch and a courtesy runner is requested later in the game for a player I do not have listed on my lineup card as F1 or F2, I don't allow the CR.
As a side note, I usually include a line in my pregame something like, "Please report all substitutions to me, if you switch your pitcher or catcher, please let me know in case you would like to use a courtesy runner."
