i looked in the spark plug hole on cylinder 2 and 3 deep cuts in the pistons also oil and chunks of somthing in throttle body. Does that mean motor is done? im thinking that there is some interference of pistons and valves ? need second opinion

Did the timing belt break? If so, it is an interferance engine, so you would be correct.
