Default Detroit Diesel (DD671N) Questions

Not having made any significant displays of ignorance lately that I
know of, thought I'd give it a try:

Is there any way to measure compression without removing injectors or
other major components on DD671s?

Second question:

Since the DD671 is a 2 cycle engine, I'm assuming there are no moving
valves, just fixed intake and exhaust ports in the cylinder walls.

Anyone know if that is correct?

If so, I'm also assuming that any loss of compression would have to be
from worn rings and/or cylinder bore. Also correct?
