Timing Belt failure and Auxiliary Pulley Failure

Have 02 V70 T5 Wagon with 208k on it. Timing belt was replaced approx 2 years ago at 186k along with tensioner and cam seals. Car turns over (nothing is seized) but cams obviously don't move due to slack in timing belt.

Timing belt failed. As did the auxiliary belt - it shredded. Pulley was no where to be found. Aux belt was completely shredded: Questions.

- When one belt goes, does it cause the other to go? Just curious for future reference.
- Safe to assume there's valve damage?
- Any idea of how long it takes to pull the head (hrs)?
- Anyone with experience on what causes premature timing belt failure. Used Volvo Tensioner and Conti Belt.
- Reason all of the above - deciding whether to repair or scrap the car.
- Anyone with link(s) to good head removal instructions - I have a haynes but always value hands on from brickboard.

Anyone and all input is greatly appreciated.
