Timing belt somehow got snagged by bracket

[Jeffrey L DeBarto]

Hey guys so I had this god awful noise when I changed my lifters. I took the cam cover off and saw my belt was torn up on the inside. I noticed the bracket part of the motor was bent under the cam pulley and digging into the cam belt. I got it all replaced but was wondering if you guys had any idea how this could have happened. The only theory I have is I may have leaned and bent that bracket thing. But I don’t see how that could have been.

Thanks guys[IMG]http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160927/24c3b32bc50281d0640c31bf0045a318.jpg[/IMG]

not sure how that would bend in. Anyone else on the vehicle?

Nope just me.

The last person to look at it was last year for state inspection.
