If the engine has failed in a big way, it might make more sense to look for a good used engine, rather than get involved in a rebuild. There is no way of knowing exactly how bad the damage is without removing the head, although a borescope would give a rough idea.

It's the 1.8 gdi Mitsubishi LPG engine. I'm not sure of the engine number.
It would seem that the pulley fell apart and then the cam belt shredded, my concern was all the oil in that area, it was all soaked. I did contact the. Preferred forum spares guys in Wales and got a quote for parts. I will get it in the workshop Tuesday and tear it down and go from there. Just wanted to see if anyone had this before and trying to establish if it's worth doing. I am fortunate that labour cost does not apply!
Cheers for the help so far.
