Changed the timing belt and it won’t start !

I have a 2008 Honda Odyssey. I ran it without oil for about 2 minutes and the timing belt stripped at the crankshaft. I replaced the belt, made certain all 3 timing marks were TDC on the crank and the 2 camshaft. Nothing was seized. I’m getting spark. It sounds like it wants to start.... but it won’t! It just cranks over and over with no start. I thought even with some bent valves it would start.
Many ideas ?

if you're saying the crank seized which caused the timing belt to seize up and break then your engine is toast

you can confirm with a compression test
