try double check your battery terminals are tight.

The P0087 is probably an artifact of low voltage causing the lift pump to spin up too slowly, starving the HP fuel pump. So Yoda is right, check your connections including the grounds. The P0345 is a different story, it's a "hard code" for a flatlined Bank2 cam sensor and probably responsible for your no-start. Try disconnecting the Bank1 sensor. Most Nissan products will start and run on the crank sensor alone if both cam sensors are bad, but will no-start if only one cam sensor is bad. Killing the good sensor may at least get it running and confirm you have a bad sensor on B2.

Checked the battery itself? The 5.6 has a habit of killing batteries due to the smart alternator setup.

dumb question. did you remember to put oil in the motor? you were doing a bunch of things and there were no issues prior to changing the oil.

If the engine was dry the cam would be moving but not the phasers, so the OP would be getting IVT codes P0011/P0014 and not a flatline sensor code.
