It sounds like your timing belt has jumped probably caused by the balance belt breaking and getting caught up in the timing belt.
It can be reset quite easily but I would advise the replacement of both belts.
The SWB I have now had this problem when I bought it (very cheap) the mechanic who looked at it (for the seller) told them the fuel pump had gone, as did the AA mechanic. Needless to say the previous owner was very peeved when I reset the timing belt and drove it away with a sweetly purring engine :lol: :lol:

right.. someone came to look at it.. tightened a few pipes that were letting air in, got it started, all belts were working. he said it looks like the tension bar is out?idk.. anyway, sump guard is coming off later & he will be back to check it out.. but so far so good.. at least its running again(kinda), all looking more positive & not so expensive to fix lol
cheers for all your input.. very helpful :D
