I can't see why it would cost $350 to evaluate the engine. If the timing belt did damage to the engine, it would be to the valves, which should be easy to check with a compression check.

A belated word of advice: always change a timing belt on a high milage used car before you dribe far. The labor and belt would have been under $300.
