Hard to say. Depends on how fast the engine was running when it broke. Sounds like pretty fast from the belt getting mangled, right? You can put a new belt on and see if the engine will turn. If not, you know you've at least got some bent valves that are not seating. You can also loosen all of the rockers to see if that will let the engine turn--then you wouldn't have to buy a new belt before deciding whether or not to fix the motor.

2000 hyundai accent need timing belt diagram to make sure im lined up right.

Timing marks are in the circles. Make sure belt is tight on right side when marks are aligned, then release tensionser to take up slack on the left side. Thanks for using fixya.

I am changing timing belt in a 2000 accent and it wont start i lined up the timing marks and even turned it one full turn after that and it still dont start turns very freely

lots of possibilities. sounds like you may be out 180 degrees.
im thinking crank probably needs cylinder 1 at top dead center and then line the marks up.
best to double check the book.

Timing belt broke on hyundai accent how do i replace it and the timing marks

1st you may want make sure that's not an interference engine. if it is then chances are the valves are bend in the head. changing the timing belt probably won't help then. If its not an interference head, then you would need a timing mark diagram which can be found online. be very careful that all marks are aligned. when finshed installing the timing belt, rotate engine by hand twice and re-align marks before putting the rest back together! hyundai should be able to tell u if the engine runs interference or not.

2002 Hyundai Accent Problem

first thing i need to know is did the timing belt break?
second is are you sure you aligned the timing marks and after the belt tensioner was tight you rechecked to make sure the timing stayed where you had it.
next step would be a compression check to if a valve was bent whenchanging the belt
i have seen this happen and this engine is an interferance engine.
later paul
