Hi and welcome to the forum.

you will need to buy or make a cam shaft locking tool.

As Noel says you need to check the valves.

Though I guarantee you will have bent most of the valves:(

The valve stems are so weak the just get bent out of the way as the engine keeps turning.

I have repaired a 1.4 and 2.0 16v Scenic with belt failure. Both had bent between 12 and 14 valves
