Early on, the only thing I noticed was puffing out of the dipstick tube. I kept driving the car while I tried to figure it out. It drove fine at first , but it got progressively worse performance after a while. The telltale sign was the irregular exhaust beat that developed. If I put my hand at the end of the exhaust while the car was idling, it wasn't a steady 1-2-3-4. It had an odd rhythm. I checked compression again and one cylinder was lower than the others, so I pulled the head.
Your problem is likely totally unrelated. I'm just sharing my situation so you can rule it out. Borescopes have gotten cheaper. You can even use a phone app now. It's easier to see what's going on in your cylinders without pulling the head.
