Like some others said, remove something so you can see if the cam is turning. This could just be the oil cap, valve cover, timing cover, cam sensor, etc. I think these may have the water pump belt driven from the other end of the cam, in which case you can see obviously.
If the timing belt is bad, you can check for valve damage with a leakdown test. Cut the belt off and set the cam to close the valves on the cylinder under test. Jam the crank somewhere off of TDC so the pistons don't move and cause further damage. If all cylinders seem good, consider a belt slap.
If the repair budget is going to exceed $50 or so, sell it for metal.
