Default 99 accord v6 timing belt broke...

hey guys im very new to accords and v6's. always been into the d,b, and h series. so i may be picking up an accord with a v6 in it and it has a broken timing belt but i wasnt sure if the stroke was long enough to do any internal damage or not... my integra timing belt broke and after i replaced it the car runs fine. long story short should i buy this car or is it possible it could have hurt the motor?

J-series V6es will usually bend exhaust valves when the belt breaks.

In addition, the automatic transmissions are notorious for developing major and costly problems.
