Default Arghhh Crank Bolt Came Off Problem inside!

well this morning i get in the car and take off to take my lil sister to school and my vortech is making a funky noise! so i dont even get down to the next neiborhood whitout having to pull over. so i pulled over and poped the hood and couldnt figure it out so i jus pulled the vortech belt so i can drive it home. well i start driving the car back up the street and guess what now the othere belts are making funky noises so i jus hurry up and get to my house down the street and put the car in the garage as fast as i can. as soon as i park i hear a cling. the bolt fell to the ground. so im like dammit i didnt have my jack so i left the car at home. well i brought my jack and lifted the car tonight to find that all the balancer and pulley were not on the crank anymore im like ****. i try putting it back on and it is no longer snug fit it jus hangs an the crank. im fuuuuccced. i think i will have to rebuild now becuz the crank hub looks tappered down and there is no way to fix this.why does this have to happen to me! i wouldnt mind blowing an engine racing but having to rebuild even when i havnt blown my engine yet sux!
