When you cover the intake air can't get in, so there is nothing in the cylinder to compress, so no (or very little) compression, same effect as taking the plug out. That is why you do compression tests with the throttle open.
Did you make sure the lines on the cams were lined up with the face of the head with piston at TDC and mark on the flywheel at TDC, if you did, timing is OK. Why have you had the cams out?

Have you made sure you have a good battery? If you have and the live and earth leads are all clean and tight at the terminals, and the engine is still turning slow, either there is something wrong with the starter motor or it's one way clutch, or something is partially seized in the engine. As it isn't the piston, or big & little ends, there is little else to check. I have had a seized effect when either starter clutch bolts or flywheel magnets come loose and jam in the stator windings.
The only sensor that could give the slow starter effect is the pickup for the ignition, and I can't see it firing early unless either it is mounted wrong or that flywheel key has sheared, and you did check for that didn't you?
