Yes it can bend valves, when the piston makes contact with an open valve if the belt breaks. It can also destroy the piston and crack a head. The 1996 Civic engine is an Interference Engine and as such will self destruct if the belt breaks. The belt should be replaced at 90,000 miles under normal conditions and 60,000 under severe conditions. It should also be replaced at 10 years regardless of mileage.
