Did you ever have the engine side cover off? The one behind the clutch? If you did then the came and crank would have been free to move independently of one another. Maybe you inadvertently and unknowingly knocked the cam and crank out of time?

I know it may sound odd, but have you tried replacing the spark plug? Every so often a spark plug will show visible spark when being tested outside the chamber but under compression it still fails.
