Drain the oil, take the sump off and find out.

Do you have an 1.2 ST engine? If so, It WILL survive a timmingbelt faliure! Turn the engine round by hand, and get a good look at the teeth of the timingbelt. I think that your's is missing a couple of teeth. replacement of the belt is very simple and cheap!

Goodluck,
