They are an interference engine
I have seen belts snap in the past and the valves be okay, on the other hand, I have seen just about every valve bent before. Some times you get lucky, and other times you get ****ed.
Every time I have seen a new tensoner they came with a new spring. Talk to the a Honda dealer and see if they can get them. Or try and use your old one.

OP can't do a compression test without the belt being on... Get a leak down tester and turn your cams until your valves are closed and measure the loss...
