If the crank shaft breaks you will have catastrophic failure of the engine with major damage. Bascially the engine will self destruct and you will have to install a new short block to repair it.
I would recommend that you do put a crank shaft head on a crank shaft. Putting any other type of head on a crank shaft could possibly break the head.
Crank shaft
Driving with a cracked or broken drive shaft is never a good idea. The shaking will eventually damage other components and when the drive shaft finally completely breaks down you will be left stranded wherever you are at.
The engine crank shaft is inside the engine
The ignition timing will be off causing misfiring among other problems.
I'll try to answer this clearly. First of all if the timing belt breaks it can hurt the engine. A value can be open when it should closed and it can be hit by the piston. The serpentine belt breaking and wrapping around the crank shaft is HIGHLY unlikely to cause the timing belt to break. The crank shaft supplies the pull and push to the timing belt not the cam shaft. You would have to cause the crank to stop immediately to have any chance of it breaking the timing belt. The serpentine belt is not strong enough, even when wedged behind the pulley, to stop the crank that quickly.
The crank sensor on a 2001 Malibu is located on the bottom of the engine near the crank shaft. It monitors the rotation and speed of the crank shaft.
