Your cylinder #1 plug was not tighten properly. The "extra torque" you claim to have used is distortion of the threads from intense heat of blow by.
It pulled air past the threads, leaned out the cylinder, the spark plug tip glowed until it became molten, and melted off into the cylinder.
It did not break off.
These are the facts, 100%.
I'm my opinion (which is usually right) you have cylinder damage from liquid metal dripping on the piston head and being blown into the cylinder walls by the piston coming up at high speed and blasting the drip of molten metal. I've seen it too many times to be wrong.
I guarantee you 100% the piece did not break off and bend a valve. It melted off.
All this from an improperly tightened spark plug. Note the carbon on the silver part. This is combustion blow by.
More facts...not a guess. sorry man..
