sorry to hear..... how old was the belt?
it might work out cheaper to buy a complete engine from ebay etc as for sure you will have valve /piston damage

Robs prob right mate. Just do a straight swap rather than rebuilding an engine.
It's £100 ish for the top end gasket kit and if you haggle I bet you could get an engine for that much.
