Problem found!

After taking the head off. I poured water into all the intake ports. They
all held water except for the valve in question. The water poured right
out. I took it to the machine shop to have the valve or head replaced.

ok heres the story,

Pulled the valve cover. Value is moving up and down.
cranked the motor until the valves were closed, blew compressed air in
spark plug hole, no air came out the exhaust or intake.
yanked the head off, no hole in cylinder (that I can see), head gasket
look ok from what I could tell

Any suggestions?

I read each post and appreciate everyone taking the time to reply. I'm
going to tear into it this weekend and will post the results.

I agree with the guy's that indicated it's an intake valve issue. Pull
the valve covers first, see if the rocker or push rod is the problem. I
have seen cases where the rocker stud pulled out, but that would keep
the valve closed. The valve could be stuck open, in which case the
rocker will be real loose.
