Very bad news need help

well my truck was running really bad.. so i took it to carb shop.. power valve was obliterated.. choke had nothing left.. bad backfire which tarnished the inside.. gasket on intake was gone.. bad vacuum leak... but good news is he rebuilt my holly for me.. did all that for around $256.. and now he said my number 4 cylinder is dead.. i havent gone and picked it up yet so i havent heard it.. but he said on the compression tester it barely moves the needle when he checks number 4 cylinder.. i talked to my friends that work at autozone.. he said either a bent pushrod. bent/broken valves.. broken valve spring. rockers not adjusted/working.. and he said hole in the piston but my oil is still lookin good so i dont think its that.. whats your opinions... and i heard also i might have a flat lobe on the cam...
