the belt was changed at 90k and now broke at 130k. its too late to decide as it has already happened. Perhaps this was automated response since my question wasnt answered.

The odds are pretty much 100% that your engine is damaged. On a Hyundai that old you should consider scrapping it rather than wasting money trying to fix it.
