oh fook, that ain't supposed to be like that:
I don't think this should be so...

At least the crank seems to be ok: -
The crank bolt came undone a little too easy and when the pulley came off, what woodruff key?? its gone!!
I'm guessing that who ever did the belt before didn't use a thread sealant on the crank bolt, instead they used copperslip
now I'm guessing here... but I reckon the copper slip has probably caused the bolt to work itself lose just a little... pulley moves just a bit and bye bye woodruff key!! If there is one saving grace here, I found this 'by accident' as I was replacing the cam belt WAY too soon!! its only done 25,000 miles on this belt and I was changing it because I had the whole front end off to change various parts...
I consider myself EXTREMELY lucky!!!
we all know what could happen...
