ESCORT DIESLE?

Hi I have a ford escort diesle van 55, It stopped thid morning and cant start it since, I have tried easy start but nothing, just turns over, I am not that up on Diesle engined although ok on petrol, I have removed the pipes from the injecters (normally where the spark plugs are) and turned the engine, the fuel does not squirt out it just spits? is this correct? I have also removed the pipe from the manual pump on the side of the engine, it seems to squirt from here.

remove oil filler cap and turn over engine check camshaft is turning - if not your cambelt has gone!
