I forgot to give you the replacement EDIS6 module and pigtail I grabbed years ago at the junk yard to clean the wiring up further. I think i already replaced the connector on your coil pack. If not, I have a replacement here somewhere. IDK how water got in that cylinder. I wish I had pulled the engine years ago after I got it running again and it wouldn't have rusted.
That rear cover breaking, did you have the head surfaced with it bolted to the head? If not, maybe it just needed decked, and thats why it cracked? I have never seen one broken either. All i did was work on the MSDIYPNP and get it working again, and then rewired the coil pack, and VR sensor to the EDIS6 module and from the module to the ECU as I recall. That was it. It ran for 20-30min while i let autotune do its thing. While running, it got a high pitched squeal that was coming and going. I assumed it was the oil pump shaft bearings not being lined up correctly, but maybe it was the #1 piston with water in it? The car was in neutral the whole time and I literally never drove it. It also got a intermittent knock which to me sounded like the #2 rod cap nut hitting the banjo fitting on the oil pump outlet. I had a similar issue on my 7mgte once.
The cam lobes look fine. The entire lobe is not supposed to be shiney, only the part that wipes on the rocker arm.
