Broken Predator Compression Release? - High Compression and Hard to Start

This Predator generator is in new condition and has almost no hours on the engine. The prior owner went to start it and found it was very hard to pull over. The compression release appears to be broken and the engine is at full compression. He called Harbor freight to order a new camshaft and was told the part is not available. So he sold it to Kenny who passed it along to me. Lets dig in and verify the diagnosis and fix the decompression system.
