Not that it matters, but what are the odds of the belt just breaking and the wave was a coincidence?
Tensioner could have been loose.

BTW, I cut the belt off and it almost looks tore. So I have some definite concerns about my valve train. I was able to turn the cam but not easy...although I do no know how hard it is to turn one by hand. Looks like i have to pull the header to get the valve cover off, or atleast loosen it.
You can take water in an engine, do this, and the engine start up and run (albeit with a heck of a knock).

I've pulled apart a few decent running engines with no noises that had bent rods. Doh !

Ok, rotated the cam and the crank incrementally and heard a valve slam shut. Bore scoped it and there is valve contact with piston, at this point I see no other option but to have the motor pulled and go through the heads.

Hopefully it's just a couple valves. The guides may be bad too, you probably know that.

Double check all of the piston heights if there is any possibility of water in the cylinders. I have see people skimp on that and then break a rod the next time out with fresh heads.
