Seems super unlikely that the crank sensor went out, that'd be a hell of a coincidence. Unless you bumped/broke the connector for it or something. Worth inspecting for sure. I'd be retracing your steps and seeing if you missed something else small.
Maybe re-inspect and swap the solenoids if you can. If the main codes you're getting are more closely related to one solenoid circuit, that code should follow wherever you place the solenoid, if the solenoid is the problem.
Not sure if DIY junkyards are around near you, but where I'm at I can pull used solenoids for pretty cheap. Can be handy for troubleshooting. Also beware of aftermarket solenoids, I tried some one time because I couldn't find genuines, and I ended up getting codes because of it.

I’ll break it down.
12/1: driving high rpm, PCV valve whistles and started running rough. Got home, checked codes to see vanos codes so decided to clean those before I tackle pcv valve. Wouldn’t turn on after cleaning vanos.
12/8: VC and gaskets come in so changed it all. Still won’t start.
I did clear the codes after changing VC and the picture I sent above were the ones that came back.
I actually did run to junkyard and got 2 solenoids and swapped those in but still no-start. Also all solenoids make the clicking noise when shaking them to test.
