Default Death of my D5?

After 4 years of relatively trouble free motoring, I fear the end is nigh for my D5. Even though the aux belt was changed at a main Volvo dealer last April, it has shredded its edges and a piece has got into the timing belt causing it to jump.
The garage are doing some diagnostic work to work out how bad it is, but it my be terminal.
So the question is what to do now? Repair it? Have the head rebuilt if the lower engine and bores are ok? Try to get a recon engine? Or scrap it?
