I wonder if the cams are upside down. expansion stroke being intake stroke.. Your exhaust should be closed enough of a system that if you put your hand over the tailpipe you'll feel air being sucked in. If that's the case, you might be lucky and only have to reset the timing belt. If it sucks and blows then, well, I believe you're screwed cause you have an interference engine and your valves are down at all times hitting the pistion..

If this is the case (backwards cams) I doubt you would have ever had the engine running because there would be no spark when there's fuel and no fuel when there's spark (you're welcome 4-stroke engine). But the good news with that its unlikely you've damaged the engine, so a 'quick' timing belt change and you're set.


BTW in your sig, Engineer - The cup has a safety factor of two.
