If your timing belt went (broke I assume), there is a chance you may also have valve damage.

i dont recommend rotating the engine with a broken timing belt. you could bend a valve that way as well. pm me for a quote.

This is not true, you have bent valves, the head will need to be pulled and rebuilt. Or get a new head. I would be happy to do the work for you. You will need a new head, head bolts, gasket, belt, tensioner, and waterpump.
