Engine Noise

Hello everyone,

I was on my way home from a car show the other day and when I got home, I heard a weird noise coming from my engine. As I was driving home I felt a loss of power but didn't think much of it. I thought maybe I was just overthinking it. After further investigation I'm pretty sure the bolts for my VANOS snapped. The car sounds like a diesel at low rpms, you can definitely here the grinding from inside the engine. Not a pleasant noise for a car enthusiast. I'm currently FBO, engine has around 90k miles. Has anyone ever had experience with this? I've personally never had vanos issues before. Any tips?
