do this

IF the crank is broken you can do this to check
Have someone in the car and try to start it, while
they are doing that have the hood open and carefully
watch the Large Center main crank Pulley and see what
it does.
If it just moves a little and the car wont start and makes
a thud, yeah......chances are its the crank
(it happened to me on a Cougar v8 once)
You can also try to move the crank pulley with your hands
up and down while the cars IS OFF and if you feel any play
in it, its probably broken
It will also throw off all the belts many times when it breaks
Are your accessory belts still in tact ?
