Compression in #1 is 125 and #5 was 140.
Put a good pushrod from another cylinder in place of where the bent one was.
It had clearance. Now waiting for replacments

Those seem low. What did the other cylinders measure?

Tony is right, both those numbers are low. Take readings on all the cylinders. Make sure the throttle is open and turn over each cylinder the same number of times. I use five compression cycles. Probably, 160-175 (cold) would be a better numbers for a Gen 2.
