cpu error Reapplied thermal paste and taking out the CPU causing CPU error

[M1sch4]

Hey guys. Yesterday I cleaed my PC and reapplied some thermal paste and took out my i7 8700k. After puttig everything back tgr it showed me on the "Ez debugging LEDs" DRAM and CPU. Then I replugged the RAM and the cpu. After that only the CPU LED is showing an error. Checked the cables and repluggend and controlled the pc in general.Therwe is a bit left of some thermal paste at the bottom left, maybe theres something bent. Or is it the paste? It only boots without any display output or indication of functioning except for the fans and RGB. Everything was working before and I didnt replug anything. Its probably a bent cpu pin rather than a dead CPU but I cant see any bent Pins. I tried my best to take some pictures I attaxched here. Would be really happy to still use this still pretty capable machine. Cant even get a z370 atm. Thank ou already!

Damn, thats a lot of scrolling. Either choose the best pica or put them in a spoiler, its to long now.

And also it looks like there is some muck on the bottom left? Maybe.
