Odds are if something happened that was bad enough to harm a valve, there's more wrong than just that single valve. You can always replace a single valve, but that won't be a guaranteed solution.

d15 aluminun is the engine making weird noises(clicking or tapping) or is it shaking.
if it is shaking then you probably have a bad motor mount

you probably have a bent or cracked valve, that will cause it to run like its on 3 cylinders
pull the head and see whats up.
