Put on a new belt AND TENSIONER. This is where people go wrong by not replacing the tensioner. Thats what it is there for, to keep proper tension. No tension and everything just slips along from the crank pully to the rest of the pulleys. Do this and im confident that your problem will be solved. BELT AND TENSIONER. BEcause now your belt is burnt. Good luck let me know if this helps.
the belt and tensioner seem perfectly fine, The belt and all pulleys turn freely of the crank and you can not feel any compression when turning the belt by hand. Its definitely the crank/pulley issue, however, ive had one person say its the key and another saying there is no key. I cant get in there without lifting the car which i cant do with no money to get it on the lift. Im hoping to pinpoint the problem. get the parts and beg and or borrow some time on a lift.
Aftr reading your post a little closer I agree with the other guy. A broken key at the crank. You shouldnt be able to spin the balancer FREELY with your hand, and the CAM has nothing to do with what your describing. I think maybe you mean CRANK.

Sounds as though the key came out of the crank
You have to raise it up & support it with jack stands
& lower one side of the sub frame for clearance, as
you seen to have figured out.
The cams play no role at all here
The balancer is driven by the crankshaft
