if the timing belt broken the camshaft will not spin you have to pull the timing cover to inspect. and on those 2.5 motors they can bend valves it's a 50/50 chance if the camshaft is infact broken there might be more serious problems as usally it happens due to lack of oil changes causing it to snap due to poor lubrication.
