Car has two balance shafts that rotate at twice engine speed. It is easy to misalign the lower shaft. I've misaligned it a time or two myself. There is no worry about damage to engine with a balance shaft belt off a tooth or so. It just causes a very noticeable vibration.
Only the cam belt can cause immediate damage. There are two belts on the front of the engine. You cannot see them without removing the plastic cover.
