I just found that the timing got messed up on a 3KGT i've been working on. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be / could be when that happens. I took some pictures under the valve covers - have a look HERE.

yea, if you have a look at the valves and the other "stuff" under the valve covers, and everything is ok, then straightening out your timing belt might be all that you need to do. If somthing was going to get screwed up from the timing belt being off, it would be under there..

how many teeth off are your cams?

If it's like 1 or 2 teeth, you MAY be alright. If it's more than that, don't waste your time trying to see if it's OK... they're fucked.
