Forgot to remove VE timing pin, no start

Alright,

In the midst of doing whatever I was doing, I forgot to remove the VE timing pin.

It was installed snug from factory, at TDC engine and TDC pump. I spun the engine over with primed fuel system, loose injector lines until I saw fuel come out, but still no start.

What can I check? Did I ruin the VE pump? I pulled the pin out and its definitely marred. Tightened it back up with spacer and still no start.

I have oil pressure, I have fuel coming out of the injector lines. Besides compression 0, what could be the issue? I do see the turbo spinning so I assume there is some compression.
