Yep its an interference engine. You probably have some bent valve stems.
It should be on its third belt by now, which one is it?

May not be the belt. Engine turns (including the cams) to a point and then
stops. With sparkplugs out and turning by hand it turns over until it stops,
more pressure will cause it to overcome whatever is broken/bent but it will
stop again. Car was totaled in a rear end accident a year ago so I am not
going to tear it apart.

just needs valves...
Even if the head has bent valves, that's not how you do the
repair...the guy gave you a clue why the car has stalled.
Of course a GM tech wouln't have the foggiest idea...
You wanna know what happened to this car, "Hyundaitech"?

The guy said the camshafts turned...so it's not the timing belt.
It's the balance shaft belt that was snapped. It is a well-known
issue that, when that happens, the flying debris destroy the
crankshaft sensor.
No CKP singnal => engine stall.
The real mystery here is that "hyundaitech" is not aware of the
issue.

Um, Mr. Theta..... did hyundaitech **** in your cornflakes, or sleep with
your wife? You seem to have some real deep issues here; this is like the
fifth time you've baited him. Would you care to enlighten the group? He
seems to know what he's talking about, but I could be wrong.

Neil
