It's obvious it's not a head gasket problem. Next time you do a compression test, after you test #2, pour a bit of oil into it and retest it, if it goes up then it's a ring problem, if it doesn't, it's a valve problem.

It's possible you have that one cylinder too tight on the valve lash. Adjust your lash and repeat. Worth a shot before you go pulling the head for a valve job.
