It's difficult at best to attempt to diagnose an engine problem "over the phone", I feel for you. If you are not visually able to see anything under the valve covers, it's time to dive deeper before you run it again. It sounds as if it is time to remove the engine and open it up before any further damage is done. Can you pull the pan with the engine in the car, that may be the next phase. Pull the distributor first. Check the gear.

Good luck
