The Clutch fan prob is most likely a failure to do a final tightening off the bolts upon reassembly ( but the mechanic will deny that) and another member here had an issue while installing a timing belt, even though all the correct marks and grooves lineup then lifters have to be loaded (if I remember correctly) The member and mechanic ran out of things to try and another member here had a better shop manual and posted what step had been missed upon installation. And the 3.5 is a non-interference engine so there are no valves bent do to the belt breaking. Other members will chime in and fill in the many blanks I have forgot. Don't let the garage tear into it until the VX knowledge gang chimes in. When I did my timing belt I made sure I didn't lose my lifter pump, they wanted to unload but I used a few well placed wire-ties and wire. But I realize in you case there was nothing you could do.. If I find the long post about the other member I'll paste it here...good luck
Update read through this thread, it might have some answers..
