Good advice given regarding head warping, or cracking. Cylinder walls can go oval a bit if really hope, micrometer in hands of competent mechanic can check.
I lost the serp belt at night on long 150mph autobahn run in 300 hp Aero.
DI was toast, head warped but repairable, thermostat needs replacing, possible water pump, new spark plugs & oil.
Good luck getting it sorted.
