is it possible to have timing off on one coil and the other fine while having spark on all four?

Not really possible that the timing is causing this issue unless you did something to it. These bikes run a wasted spark system, so even when a particular cylinder isnt in its fire stroke, the plug still sparks. If its starting on two cylinders, and you are getting spark on all four plugs, im still going with the carbs. If you didnt replace the orings, or pull them out before you put them in the parts washer, you'll end up with bits of them in the pilot circuit, which is the circuit of the carbs the bike uses to simply start and idle. Id suggest pulling the carbs again, and cleaning them a bit better, especially the pilot circuit, and replacing the orings in them all. Its not horribly difficult, and you'll be quite surprised how easily that bike will fire right up when the carbs are right. The gas leaking out of the airbox is another clue that the carbs are not right as well. The CV carbs on your bike have no overflow vents, so the gas that isnt getting used because the pilot circuit will not allow it to pass into the combustion chamber has to go somewhere. First place is to the airbox, and unfortunately, the crankcase will soon follow...

Was that before you connected the battery up the wrong way?
If yes, may have damaged something, better check again.
However, my money is on the carbs.
