My question is... why has the timing lost position due to this oil issue?

Whether it is the variable timing (pin) or a timing 'jump' (at least one camshaft out of position) was it due to oil starvation (extra heat) to the camshafts/valve gear?

I'm suspicious of internal damage.

Won't fire up/start? Could be timing and/or cam sensor reading (if it has one) preventing a start up.
