Bunch of Codes, Crank but no start after Valve Cover Replacement?

In the past I replaced the valve cover on my 06 E46 ZHP and a couple days ago I decided to also do it for my 2011 E70 X5 (35i, X-Drive). It was difficult compared to the E46 but not too bad until I went to start the X5 (it will turn over but not start). After hours of looking online for a solutions...I'm about ready to give up and take it into a local indy mechanic but since I'm stuck at home due to the Covid-19 and have time on my side before the wife needs the car back...I figured I'd post and see if anyone has had a similar problem.

I do have a code reader and here are the codes I'm getting:

-332F Terminal 87_2, power supply switched by main relay, electric short circuit to ground.
-2E4B Exhaust Flap, activation short circuit to earth
-2D52 VANOS solenoid valve, intake, activation short circuit to ground.
-2D9C Exhaust VANOS solenoid valve, activation, short circuit to earth
-2C89 Blow-off valve activation short circuit to earth
-300C Intake camshaft sensor signal high
-300E Exhaust camshaft sensor signal high
-3400 Engine oil pressure control valve, activated short circuit to ground

I checked, and then "double" checked all my connections and they appear ok. I have not found any blown fuses but perhaps I'm not checking the right ones? The fuse chart for the E70 is NOT user friendly! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
