A FLASHING CEL IS ALWAYS A MISFIRE!!!
Don't believe me? Check the list of CEL codes from the OEM documentation. The 3 misfire codes are the only ones that have "flash" in the column about what to do with the CEL.

That link has a full list of what are all the common things that can cause a misfire to work through.
