engine "sorted"

So it appears the engine is sorted. Cylinder missing was caused by duff new ht leads! New cambelt as precaution. Need to find exact compression test figures as cylinder #4 was down c10% before we changed cambelt (which i am told is within accepted tolerance) but tests can vary according to how hot the engine is and whether throttle wide open or not.
Anyhoo...it's all fine apparently. Ready for trackday @silverstone next week....although i've only gone and torn my pere-neel tendon in my left calf....following a physio session yesterday i can barely walk at the moment so hoping it recovers at least 50% strength so i can operate the clutch! Thanks to the guys @Guglielmi.
