It's best to take it to a local mechanic who you know, as it may just be that it came off loose and he can sort that out for you and may not even charge you.

Not the timing belt.
The auxiliary belt, check condition of auto tension idler if it has one fitted.
If it's on a adjuster - refit and set adjustment.
