Disagree. The point of the oil is to seal the rings...
If there's still zero compression with the oil, it's more likely a valve or 2.
Have you tried a leakdown test to isolate where the pressure is escaping. You'll hear it in the intake, exhaust or oil pan. Then you'll know.

Believe it or not; bad headgasket was the reason, it blew between 4 and 5
I will upload a picture of it later; its 3:57am here (PST) and I am just going to bed; couldnt sleep till she was finished. Head was uninstalled gasket was replaced and car was put together, I wish it was just as easy as it sounds but no; in the process one of the freeze plugs on the head fell inside of it and I coudnt get it out of there, had to find a replacement. Do you think that loose plug can affect engine cooling?
