   Hi, Take the cylinder head off, and look for little "smiley faces" on the tops of the pistons. If there are Bright, Shiny, Well Defined marks that look like: ")" that half of a parentheses, then there are bent valves. If however, there are no marks, or slight impressions only to the carbon coating the top of the piston, and not through into the metal the piston is made from, then re-install a new timing belt, tensioner, water pump, and anything else you can afford that looks suspect...like the valve cover gasket, and intake plenum gasket, etc. My expectations are you should be OK. Good luck,
