Well, it happened to me 2 weeks ago, it wasnot at idle, but I was just pulling out so like 15-20mph.
My mechanic friend took the head off, I had to order 8 exhaust valves with guide and seals, and head gasket set as well, It's about 200$, + 180$ timing belt kit, + labor costs. So we will see...

UPDATE

It's fixed!!!!! No damage!!!! YEAH BABY!!!!
Did you actually check the valves? Even at idle the pistons have plenty of force to bend a valve. So im hoping that you actually took of the heads and checked the pistons and valves. If not, you could be causing more damage in the long run
Second on that one, no chance in hell snapping a timing belt on a V6 is gonna come out un-scathed, it doesn't happen. It will run im sure, but not for long.
