Low compression test
So lately I've been having this slight misfire and tick. Been meaning to take it back to the dealer but haven't had time due to work. I have an 13 ls3. I had my buddy run a compression test and all cylinders were at 180+ except cylinder number 2 it was at about 45 psi. And also my valve covers got painted about a month ago. Could this void my warranty as well.

Do you have a tune to go along with your headers?

Untuned , or factory settings
I'm not an expert , but in my opinion you should put it as it came from the dealer Then take her there and ask them to listen to that kinking |

Less hassle you get if you put it to stock. Not that hard to put back it can be done in a few hours. By the way, not good with only 45 psi. Did you recheck it? Did you do a wet test? Under warranty however just curious if you did this.

Perhaps you have a broken rocker or trunion not letting a valve open? Hard to fry a piston untuned me thinks.
