Bad valve lifter. The lifter no longer can hold oil pressure to push up on the push rod to the rocker arm to push down on the valve.

A worn camshaft will not change the static ignition timing unless the distributor drive gear is worn out. Is it possible that the camshaft is broken? Or is the timing chain or distributor bad?
