Distributor does run off the cam. Got spark when you try to start it?
Sounds like your getting closer.

Perhaps this is better for diagnostics. Went out and checked the valves
were operating correctly. Both sides were good. Fired her up with
valve covers off to verify the noise was not coming from the valves, and
they operated fine, noise was from either engine internal, or perhaps
the flywheel area as some indicated. She stalled out and when I tried
to start her back up, she cranks freely and won't start, I think
something broke loose? Perhaps the flywheel as some indicated? Will
pull the starter next to see if the flywheel is the culprit. I put her
in gear and the rear wheel turns as I crank, does that mean the starter
is indeed engaging but something else is shot? Distributor perhaps?

Help!
