stripped bolt holes!
tranny bolts and such. basically any bolt hole you see check the threads in it

I'd turn it by hand and do a compression test. It won't be as accurate as if the motor were warm but at least you'll know if there's a bent valve if the numbers are way off. Check for metal/coolant traces in the oil too.
