Default Help. Timing and broken bolt in head =[

there are 4 bolts on the right side of the head (beside the cam Gears). everything else torqued to spec just fine, but when i tightened those down 2 of them snapped off in the block...is it alright to drive with the bottoms in untill i can get new ones? i need this car to get to work tmr. Also, i had intended on getting a new timing belt, but i am strapped on cash and need to reuse the one i have. my timing belt is on, am i correct in thinking that that little white line on the Crank pulley gets matchd up with the line on the cover? and how can i get my cams back to TDC?

i would definitely not drive with head bolts not connected. it will warp the head most likely and coolant would leak everywhere, causing more damage than i think you would want

no your misunderstanding...the head bolts are all fine...there is a bolt above the cam gear that snapped. there are lets say twenty of them i believe. i have no idea how to set my timing, i put the crank pulleys white line on the mark on the case, but i cant get my cam gears to move now...
