I can't help without knowing what is missing from the system when you are trying to start it. When your engine doesn’t start you’ll want to check the basics. Check spark, fuel injector pulse and fuel pressure, volume, quality and engine compression. Are there any fault codes? Once you figure out what is missing, it will be easier to diagnose.

If you had to replace the timing belt due to it breaking, there is a good chance that you bent the valves and they will no longer close. Do a compression check to see if your valves are closing properly.
