In these pics is the crank locked at TDC? This is critical to understanding what has occurred.

With this much deviation you could already have bent valves. The first step will be to perform a series of tests to see what collateral damage exists as it may be too late to even care about the underlying condition and primary failure.

I did have the crank locked at TDC. Like I stated in my first post i would really like to fix this engine if i can so that way i can spend the money on making a better engine. If i just go get a used engine i might have the same problem later down the road. Let me know what you think i should do and thank you for all your time and help.
