you could just take the head and get it checked or u could put new timing belt on and crank it and see if it runs or just look and see if it is a non interference motor or not

Since your timing belt broke, you've most likely bent all your valves. My belt sheared and left a 3/8" wide belt on the cam gear and that bent all my valves. Sucks dude..
