just wanted to thank you for answering. Yes, when I took the valve cover off, the belt was just sitting on top of the cam gear. They say water leaking is the worst cause and the little o ring behind the water pump did not look like it was ever sealed and most likely the reason I could not keep the radiator full. I realized the reason I had compression in 2 and 3 were simply because the valves were closed.
