From what I've gathered it appers that when the belt skipping the first time likely damage the bottom end.
when the head was rebuilt and re installs the bottom end had not been inspected for damage, the car then went right to the Dyno and the damaged bottom end started to get worked hard and got heat into it at witch point it looks as tho the crank ended up binding in the bottom end because the crank skipped single tooth on the crank gear.
You have to take into account the conditions in witch the first belt skipped being as there would be no oil pressure on start up and the fact it was well below -20 if you think about all the force on each rod as it comes into contact with the valves it is definitely hard on bearings even in optimal conditions let's alon a frozen motor on start up
