I really appreciate the suggestions, but would any of these actually cause no compression on the cylinder or just misfires?

Root if the screw gets sucked into the motor it could get stuck in the between the valve.

Valve won't close and thus no compression. Take a pic over the piston #1 too. Right over the top of it with the highest detail you can.
