First time today I have had the time to do any work on the car again...and I guess what they say is True if you don't get it right the 1st time keep trying till you do.Found the problem!!!
I had noticed the spark plug on #6 looked very lean,so I checked the nozzel,line going to the nozzle,filter-not clogged,blowed air through the nozzel holder(don't really know the name)that the pill goes in to make sure the air vent as well as the nozzel holder was clean everything checked out fine. So today the 1st thing I done is pulled the nozzel holder out to see if I had damaged it...and their it was in the end of nozzel holder(the piece that goes into the intake)a small piece of the foam filter that goes around the out-side of it.The foam filter looks to be deteriorating and it pulled a piece down into nozzel holder. By it being foam it appears it was letting droplets of fuel come through instead of spraying the fuel in and that's why there was no dead cylinder. I know to check the filters to make sure they are clean,but never thought about them deteriorating.Also I never thought there was a need to cover the air bleeds when blowing them out,but from now on will put a small piece of rubber hose over them to make I get enough pressure going through them. Maybe this info. will help someone in the future.And THANKS everyone for the help!
Im just not sure if the above would equate to a clanking noise. Unless your suggesting the miss is causing another source of clanking noise. I thought most other possible sources were dismissed already.

It was a new engine build & just started it on warm up,so hopefully it did not hurt anything sounds fine now.
PS I would have never thought something like that would have make a clanking sound either.
