Given that you were stopped at the time and hopefully only turned over on the starter, there's a fair chance you have got away with it - only way of being sure is to fit a new timing belt.

Are you sure it's a B200F? Is it mechanical or electronic injection and does it have a Lambda sensor and cat or not? A photo would help if you're not sure. If it's a B200E with K-Jetronic (mechanical) injection, there's a much higher chance of there being no damage.

Thank you....it has a cat for sure.
