If you've hit the starter with it in this condition you can all but guarantee a bent valve (s). The 104 valves are not very substantial and it won't take much to bend one. My guess at this point is that the damper is not installed correctly on the hub. Are all the bolts in the hub? IIRC there is one bolt that is offset preventing the damper from being installed incorrectly. If the damper is on right, the key may have gotten knocked out when the hub was installed. I've knocked a few into the pan myself, its not hard to do. Without the key the hub could end up anywhere.
