Could be fine.... could be dead...
I'd clean away any traces of aux belt... pop the top cover and check the timing and see how far out it is if its out at all... and obviously check there is no aux belt under the cam belt
When I had something similar happen the reason it wouldn't start after was because the extra current drawn by the starter trhing to turn it over while locked solid with the aux belt had burnt out my ground cables to the battery. So when I tried to start it the extra resistance made it too sluggish turning over to start (and the volt drop was heating up the cable rather then the glow plugs)
Or you could have just drained the battery by trying to get it restarted.
Or it jumped lots of teeth and you have valve chunks flying round in the cylinders :/
Assuming the cam belt is still fine to test with (but quite possibly worth changing), if its timed up and with a good battery (and cables made from copper and not hopes and dreams) it should start fine with no aux belt.
