Not necessarily ,but if this is an "interference motor " and it probably is being a twin cam, it is" probable " if the cam timing has "jumped " very much.

Well, to start I will tell you what twin tips are just in case you don't know. Twin tips are skis that have tails (the back) that are exactly the same as the nose (the front) in that they usually have the same dimensions and always are bent upwards the same amount as the front, simple enough. Partial twin tips have tails that are bent upwards a little bit, still allowing the skier to be able to ski backwards safely, but not as much as the nose.
