Default Compression check question?

Ok, this is probably a stupid question, but does the condition of your valves/valve guides affect a compression test in any way?

I would assume that worn valve guides would let air blow pass, lowering your test results.

yeah, leaking valves will rear their ugly heads in a compression test
