Edit forgot to add: leak down on #3 was *really* hard to tell where it was going. Maybe rings but sound in the valve cover was ever-so-slight.
I hope a beater dsmer doesn't hope for those #. 1 of those #'s are within the serviceable limit.

But not burning oil between oil changes that's a different story
