Default 2000 5.4 Missing

On top of burning oil, I'm now missing a cylinder, and have a valve tick. No blue exhaust yet, but I'm sure its on it's way. I'm not sure how to diagnose this yet, I CAN NOT get this truck to throw a code. I hate driving it like this, but if I dont know what to fix, I cant fix it.
The oil burning starts as soon as the truck is started, like its leaking onto the manifold, and the odor is worse in the cab when stopped. It smells rich, and now is making racket and missing a cylinder.
Does anyone have ideas on diagnosis? Thanks.
