Help
so I found a T II engine but its lost compression. I have no problem rebuilding it but if its lost compression is it possible the housings and rotors could have been destroyed?

you won't know until you have opened it up.
You can try the ATF trick to see if the seals are dried up or sticking.,The seals can actually be felt with your finger through the exhaust ports.Check to see if the seals are Bouncy and Evenly Structured.If they are jagged then you can bet it would have caused housing damage.
But if it has lost Compression,it is usually going to need a rebuild.
