Default St170 Timing belt snapped and blew the inlet manifold off!

Hi..
Tonight the cambelt snapped on the St170 and due to the pressure blew the inlet manifold out of its 4x retaining hose clamps! It went at low revs.
Does anyone know if these engines are prone to bent valves etc or should I chance fitting a new belt and compression checking it first? Wisful thinking maybe??
Your help and advice would be much appreciated.
