Having read all this thread about the GS(X)750 motor problem I am wondering what the click noise was. I'm wondering if the cam chain guide has broken!
As for your timing lines the chain can be less than the service limit but not more so it seems that your chain has plenty of live left in it. A good sign. Secondly, go by the 20 pin rule than the position where the arrows line up on the exhaust cam shaft. As long as 1-4 on the points/ignition timing is correct and the intake arrow is correct 20 pins will be correct timing.
Your butterfly's being closed only happens as you've disconnected them from the throttle stops on the twist grip. Off the bike they are normally closed. She might run fast to start with when you start her up again.
A good piece of advice is sort out one problem first than doing lots of jobs and getting lost on the original problem. You still haven't found why the bikes compression has dropped so much over 5 months standing. That should be your priority to be riding again. She worked before you laid her up so the setting and such like were OK.
