OMG thats not how you do it. Valves dont literally look bent. You have to pull the head. Pour a liquid into the ports. If the cahmber is good no bent valves liquid will remain in the port. If liquid comes out there is your bent valve. Easy and it works. I promise you there are atleast 2 bent in there but hey lookin works too

it reallt depends on what type of load was on the motor and what RPMS you were at, I've had a belt snap and had 6 bent valve, but just the other day my tensionator loosened up and the belt poped off the exhaust cam and i was at idle and nothing happend. i head metal on metal contact but no damage was done, but then again i killed the motor 2 seconds after it happend.
