...With as little information as you gave us we must assume your diagnosis is correct and you won't get many replies..
...I would have swapped the plug and wire for #5 for example and watched to see if the misfire moved..Then i would think it might be the injector...
..As for the compression test, we would need the readings for all cylinders to know if it was actually low or not..There may be additional test to find out if it's a head gasket but usually that adds more cost...
I am surprised they didnt suggest anything else....
What do your oil and anti freeze look like and are you burning or loosing fluid levels? Funny exhausts smell? Did you overheat the vehicle?
