Easiest way to identify a CG engine is to look at the left side of the cylinder. You'll see a round metal insert with a slot in it. That is the pivot pin for the cam followers. |

If the piston and rings are good that leaves the valves or head gasket. When you had the head off did you try pouring gas into the upside down head to see if there was any leakage through the valves. One time I over oiled a foam air filter which caused a buildup of carbon on the back of the intake valve. A tiny flake of carbon came off and got stuck under the valve causing a loss of compression.
