Based on the sound in this most recent video, there may be a bent valve.

Ugh..I was afraid of that. I was going to check the valve lash to see if they were out of spec

I checked all the valve lashes and they all were consistent and within spec on all except the driver side intake valves

If you do indeed have a bent valve on the LH (Bank2) cylinder head, the engine must be removed from the car as the head on that side cannot be taken off with the engine in situ.

I had a dry and wet compression done and it indicated that the piston rings are worn. The dry compression was 90psi and after the squirt of oil it went to 130psi on the first cylinder of the LH bank
