Any sprockets/belts/pulleys/bolts related to timing that come off when the motor is running is bad and can possibly be dangerous to it.

I would strongly recommend you have a decent mechanic look at it before turning it over again.

The cost to have someone proficient 'look' at it and tell you what, if anything, is wrong is a lot less costly than putting things back together, wingin' it and hoping nothing breaks internally.

Not sure of your mechanical skills, so don't take any offense to what I said.

... good.. bad.. I'm the guy with the gun.
