There's a 2.8 GU wreck on the patrol forum, under wrecking out. It's in brissy and the car was drown in the floods but it say's no water in the engine. Might be worth making an inquiry.

Na haven't took it apart yet (Bit past me) only happened a bit after lunch, when I kicked it over it sounded like nuts and bolts in a blender, now it just makes a knock sound and wont kick over.

I'd say timing belt has gone, its common on them.

Thank you so much for everyone's help, it's great when people come together. This Saturday the in-law is coming over then we are going to take out the engine then take it to his place strip it down and go from there, thanks again for all your help.
Cheers,
Richard.
