Default couple of questions...can someone please answer.

Sorry for the long story your about to read and the big *** pics.

So I noticed a clanking/ticking noise from my engine bay and I saw the crankshaft pulley wobbling at idle. I revved it a little and the pulley moved straight. At idle it wobbles. This happened after one day trying to start the car the motor made a wierd noise like some5hi g was holding it from cranking. The car didn't start. I waited a couple of seconds and it started but with that clanking sound. So I drove like that to my house because I just left work. On the way home the battery light on the dash came on and I checked the pulley came off. The bolt was still there just not tight.
So I tightened it but the noise was still there so I said something is not right. I took the pulley off and this is what I saw.

So I know I need to buy a pulley. But this is my question. Im pretty sure the "woodruff pin" or key is messed up too....here a pic

So can I just remove the pin and insert a new o e or do I have to do more dissassembly?
I hope I can just pull 8tnout and stick the new one in. Let me know guys, and thanks for reading

Unfortunately, this normally results in the crank being damaged.

should i try to repair it? the crankshaft bolt is not stripped nor are the inner threads of the shaft itself...the engine still runs great if that means anything...so can i just pull the pin out or do i have to take more parts off so the pin can come out.

What I've read that normally happens is the crank gets bent. You're going to have to take everything apart to atleast visually see the timing pulley and see what's going on inside.
