Those teeth are likely to have been lost after continual attempts to start it . The starter motor turns the crankshft, the crankshaft pulley splines then destroy the teeth on the seized belt. The pistons will almost certainly havesmashed into the valves.

The belt is supposed to be renewed every 72000 miles in normal use. How many had yours done?

My guess is there will be serious engine damage
