easier to do a compression test:
If you are among the luckiest people on earth, leave the balance belt off, set the marks to the correct positions for crank and cam
install the cam belt and take a compression test, my guess readings will be zero to very low, should be 120psi and above for all 4

you had the cam belt off and were able to rotate the cam: bottom line the valves are bent

you can replace the head or have that one rebuilt, get a hand when reassembling the replacement, after that it will be a piece of cake!
