Bruce;

The vacuum line did look at bit weathered so I'll change that and eliminate as
problem.

Oddly enough, AS SOON as it wouldn’t run it started to turn over faster. ?? The faster engine rotation sounds similar to when the plugs are out during a compression test. Having heard this, the first thing I did was check to see if the cam was moving and it was.

Maybe the T-belt did jump some teeth ... this could potentially throw off the timing enough for the cylinders to not have compression and thus the increase cranking speed would make sense.

I'll check for spark, then TDC on #1 with matching timing marks(hopefully).
