Update for " it died"
Today i finally went out and riped the front cover of the timing belt. Found that it was missing a few teeth, stripped at the bottom <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" /> , and therefor not gripping the pulley. I was able to rotate the camshaft all the way around so it was not hit by the valves 
.
Now my question, does anyone have a timing belt for sale?
Cheers <img border="0" alt="[cherrsagai]" title="" src="graemlins/drink.gif" /> , And thanks for everyones help!

Uh if you were turning the camshaft with the timing belt off, that means you were not turning the crank at the same time right? If you were doing this I would think that at some point the cam SHOULD stop as a valve pushed into a piston. That would seem normal to me because there is not enough clearance there. One of the pistons is normally in the top dead/near top dead center area which then a valve would run into it. If it goes all the way around then I would suspect something is bent/broken and allowing the parts to pass by each other...
