 Bill,

If you had compression before you did some fiddling, and you've got less now, then it looks like you have a bent valve(s).  The rings and liners didn't get worn or unseated with just your small amount of work and turning the engine over while changing the belt. 

I suppose I'd very carefully go over my cam timing again, squirt some oil in #2 and #3, and then check compression again.  If it comes up low again then it looks like you'll be in for some engine R&R.
