Glow Plug change and compression results

Changed the glow plugs today. Removing the injector lines is pretty much an absolute. How easy is it to strip the threads on the injector?

Compression test results were:

No1 320
No2 280-290
No3 315
No4 360
No5 315


I measured through the glow plug hole. I cranked until the needle wouldn't go any higher, probably 10-12 cranks. Maybe I didn't do something right cause No4 couldn't be that high, right?
Is No2 cylinder possibly a problem? Maybe a leak down test is in order.
Also, there was some whitish residue on GP #2.

Appreciate the help.
