That sure sounds like a bent or 'stuck' valve to me. If you look at a cross-section drawing of the head, all possible worst-case wear conditions were taken into the design, without running out of threads on the swivel-foot adjuster!

You should perform a compression test on that cylinder ASAP! My bet is you will have ZERO compression on that cylinder, because that intake valve is probably stuck open!
