I would be checking all them valves. There is not a lot of room for error at all with the valves in these heads so id be surprised if there is no damage. My spare engine snapped on idle and it bent 4 valves.
I was thinking that before I took the head off, but remember my belt didn't snap, only slipped a few teeth. It was only when I was cranking the engine to take the bottom aux pulley off that the pulley properly fell apart. Luckily the pulley kinda snapped whilst still running, then fell to bits when I took it apart. Either way, I'll know on Tuesday and I'll post my success/miserable failings on here
