You would know if the valves were bent. Sticks out like a sore thumb when turning over by hand and it also wouldnt stop the car from running unless it was really bad!
The ecu cuts fuel and spark but it can still turn over. Your still getting both of those so should be ok.
Ive never heard of it with a XSi ecu before but its very common for the 1.8 sagem ecus to literally just stop working. Normally they get spiked by poor designed wiring which doesnt stop the coilpack backfeeding.
