Just spoke to my local Volvo indy, tells me the CVVT hub was removed (PO not me) and that for him to align the cams is $500+, and is not guaranteed to bring back compression. In other words, time for the head to come off to verify no bent valves.
Thanks for everyone's help and ideas.
PS - He's only charging me $40 for the diagnosis. I would highly recommend this guy for anyone in the Northern Cincy area.
