update: no impression markings on bottom of head gasket from slipped liners. the metal rings on gasket are smooth and all there for all cylinders on left bank.
but i do have that tapping noise chronic...so maybe now im thinking oil pump gears and bearings.
before i tore apart engine i forgot to do an oil pressure test...but i never got low oil pressure light 6-7 psi. so it must be above that.

Whatever you do - do not put water in the cylinder. If you want to check if it is a ring problem, squirt some oil in the spark plug hole and rotate the engine a few revolutions, then recheck the compression. If it increases you have a ring or cylinder problem. Never put water in a cylinder.
