A burnt valve is from improper valve lash usually
A massive oil leak is common if you dont change out the pvc...usually blows out rear main seals and VC seals
Knock sensor was supposed to havebeen replaced when the lower intake plenum came off....

Im not flaming you by any means, but it doesnt sound like inherent engine problems to me...
