You said the timing belt tensioner was bad previously, what makes you think that this isn't again related to that? How many teeth off were the cams when you bent the valves before?

I've always heard that anything more than 2 teeth off can cause valve damage, so hopefully that isn't the case with you. If there were bent valves then a leak down test would show that.
