Your compression gauge / method isn't reliable enough. Also, be sure to prop the throttle wide open, air is needed for a good compression test.

Do a leak down test next, this will tell you much about engine condition.

The single black plug is either a leaking injector , failing plug wire.

A head gasket is very low on the list.
