Default My BIL does not get it,2005 Aveo

My BIL Mitch does not get it,timing belt broke in his 2005 Aveo and he replaced the timing belt himself.I told him the cylinder head has to be pulled,bent valves.One of his know it all buddies said it was not an interferance engine and I know it is.He cranked it over yesterday,won't start messing with the timing marks 5 times.It is at my place now and I have to prove it to him.Plus I have the special tool to rotate the water pump which is leaking also.He is being a cheap *** and does not want the water pump replaced.I know better,any type of leak will burn up an engine not caught in time.I need to get it to him and plan on pulling the head this afternoon.

do a compression test, if it has none there is internal damage and has to come apart to see whats damaged
