You screenshot of the Goodreads Sync plugin shows an option about setting the ISBN. It is set to always overwrite. Change that to the never modify value.

The Goodreads metadata source plugin will also get the ISBN. But, it shouldn't replace it. In fact, if the ISBN exists, then it will be used to search for the book. And if you choose the book found that way, the ISBN won't be updated. If there isn't an ISBN, or it doesn't match the book you want, the plugin will supply the ISBN back to calibre to decide what to do. And in this case, updating the ISBN sounds like the correct action.
Thanks I changed the Goodreads Sync for the ISBN now to see if I can just have the pages calculated and not the words
