Cylinder 2 Misfire

Hi all!
I ran into an issue this morning on my way to work. Started the car up and the dash lit up with lots of unhappiness. Stabilitrack Disabled and the check engine light flashing at me. Plugged in HP Tuners and I have the P0300 and P0302 codes. I swapped ignition wires and cleared the codes. No joy. Scanner shows some variation in my O2 sensors. I have never really paid attention to thos values so that may be something, maybe not... Any help is greatly appreciated.

Car info:
2015 SS L99
No real mods or tune yet. I have a K&N drop in filter, Taylor plug wires, and the power wedge. I turned off the AFM via HP Tuners. Drove from Virginia to Connecticut and put a few hundred miles on since with no issues.

HP tuners Info:

i would do the easy stuff first

1. inspect the spark plug and wire connections. coils for any visible damage. injector connectors or fuel leaks at the manifold.

2. remove and inspect spark plug. if you have a snake camera, take a look inside to see if you see anything odd

3. swap coils with another cylinder and see if the issue follows the coil to the other cylinder

3b. if 3 doesnt change anything, swap a fuel injector with another cylinder's injector and see if the issue follows it to that cylinder

4. compression and leakdown test

Thanks!
So plan A was to swap the coil pack and see if the issue followed. Unfortunately, I am living in a Hotel and most of my tools are home in Virginia. I decided to disconnect the battery for 15 minutes, clear the DTCs, and scan for codes while firing her up.

Now i am getting a p0202 - open circuit for injector 2, looks like it has failed. I have never seen an injector go bad before. I guess I will be over-nighting an injector.

Hopefully this will fix it and I can be back on the road.

I ordered one injector and an 8 pack of spark plugs. Parts will be here tomorrow and I will have it all together this weekend. The plugs are the new ruthenium type from ngk. Hopefully I will be running better than when I arrived! Thanks again for the sound advice.

Up and running! It was a bad injector and all DTCs are clear.

The injector was easier than I thought it would be. Took just over an hour to do that and the spark plugs.
