94 4runner damaged!?

My truck 94 4runner v6 3vze auto transmission

broke down on highway.

I pulled in for gas and noticed water leaking. It appeared to be leaking from weep hole under water pump. I had a water pump go out before and I still made it home by adding water every few miles. Tried to do the same but the truck died about two miles down the road (did not overheat just died)

At that point I noticed a belt missing. I have determined that the belt that is gone is meant to operate some sort of air pump. What is likely to happen as a result of this belt falling off?

There is no spark but I suspect the trucks circuitry is designed to disable ignition function when other functions are malfunctioning...?

There is a tension adjusting pully that is frozen and I believe this caused the belt failure.

Now ANOTHER issue. The truck was pulled over 100 miles in neutral without having the drive shaft disconnected what can I expect to replace as a result of that mistake?

Any advice greatly appreciated.

well the towing could be a prob, supposidly an auto tranny has no way to lubricate itself when not on and operating, so possible bearing failures may occur, not exactly sure, and if you replace the belt and malfunctioning tensioner puller should be able to reset ecu and be golden, if other problems arent occurring
