There will be a little "pit" but make sure it hasnt gone through the piston. If not, inspect the engine very closely, possibly with magnifying glass if you have one and look for any crack or leakage signs. Only one thing can cause a lost of compression, that is not having a sealed engine or at least sealed to factory design.
Well actuallly I manually sprayed some fuel inside the carb and not even that made the engine show signs of combustion. The way I see it, if there is a leakage the engine will certainly run erracticly but that should not keep it from firing up. Now a hole in the piston would be a different story.
