P0272 code on startup after complete teardawn

Finally got my 6.0 van started after 10 months(Had way too many things on my list above it) being down for leak in HPO system. The only things left in the block were the crank,pistons, and cam.
Once i got it started it has a miss and im getting a P0272 code for cylinder #4 Balance fault.
Could this be from the air in the HPO system?
Any help would be appreciated!

My bet is that you bent a pushrod on cyl. #4 when you got it started or you have an injector issue. Pull the valve cover and inspect the pushrods carefully.
