Well, funny thing is, they shouldnt have been taking the starter off in the first place. Now, as far as the cams go.... did the cams jump in relation to eachother or did the crank timing gear jump? The guides as well as the tensioner take the slack up... I would also look into the chain itself.... like belts... chains can stretch over time... and if you have a stretched chain in combination with bad guides or tensioner.. then that could definately be the problem. As far as the valves being bent... if I remember correctly... 1 tooth on the camshaft is about 5-7 degrees... so it really depends on "how much" they skipped in timing. You might not bend a valve with a 5-7 degree variance, but it will definately make for a shitty idle as well as a loss of power.
