“Hopefully this not an interference motor.”

And, it would be helpful if the OP responded to my questions, particularly, “You can also help us to help you by telling us whether you replaced the timing belt (?) proactively, or whether the old belt snapped.”
If it is an interference engine, and if the belt snapped, then it was probably not even worthwhile to replace the timing belt on a badly-damaged engine. Hopefully, it is not an interference engine and hopefully the belt was replaced proactively.
@redd–Are you still here?
How about responding to my questions?
