Compression and or leakdown test. Don't mess about...

Pull out the plugs. Should be very easy to see which pot isnt firing, and whether the plug is dry or wet, or oil fouled to give you a clue as to why.

If dry - injector failed or no fuel for some other reason.

If wet - no compression or no spark on that plug.

If oily - no compression & holed piston.

If checking the plugs doesn't help then a compression tester (gauge that you screw each the spark plug hole one by one) is not expensive and will give you reassurance or diagnosis!
