I don't know where it would have gone to...

Just kidding.

On a more serious note: Your engine is an "Interference engine". What this means is that if the timing belt breaks, one or more of the valves will get hit by the pistons causing severe engine damage. The cylinders can be leak tested by removing the cams and putting compressed air into the spark plug holes to help assess the damage. In most cases, it can be fixed by removing the cylinder head and replacing a couple valves. In more severe cases, the pistons, the cylinder walls, or the cylinder heads can be badly damaged. It will be impossible to tell you exactly what needs to be done without some testing and disassembly. It is not likely to be cheap at any rate. It's more like if it is going to be expensive or is it going to be REALLY expensive?
check this out..my 04 3.8litre endeavour power steering belt broke..the car
ran about 3 to 4 minutes shut off and would not start.after testing for spark fuel nothing..had a new cam sensor and cranksensor installed now i have spark but aparently no fuelif i spray quick start into the throddle body it would look to start but wont stay running..i would like to where are the fuel relays on this vehicle

Maybe a valve will bend, first timing belt needs to be replaced, and see what consequences are. good luck.
SOURCE: sounds like broke timing belt but timing belt is
What or how does it sound like a broken timing belt? Is the engine knocking? If the belt is not broken, it might have slipped and the timing may now be off, enough to cause the sounds you're hearing.
