The cummins went 24 valve in model year 1998.5
1987
The 1996 has 12 valves, they did not start putting the 24 valves in the pickup until 1998.5. Hope this helps.
1996 model year.
defective fuel pump
Dodge has never put the pump on the outside of the tank on any fuel injected Ram Vans.
Very probable to have bent valves.
1987 - 1995
The belt breaking would have no effect on the sensors, but it may have bent the valves. That would cause a no start.The belt breaking would have no effect on the sensors, but it may have bent the valves. That would cause a no start.

The Dodge intrepid will not start after overheating because it blocks the radiator cap.
It can if the pistons hit the valves while they are open. The timing chain ensures that when the piston is at the op of it's storke the valves are closed. When the chain breaks the cam stops turning allowing the valves to open and close so if the piston is still trying to travel up in the cyclinder with the valves open it will hit them and bend or break them. Also trying to start the engine with the timing change broken can have the exact same result.
is it carburated or throttle body injected? try putting a little gas in the carburetor or throttle body or if you have no gas try starting fluid but if you have gas in a jug use that because starting fluid is hard on the pistons and valves. and see if itll start
