sho won't start?

I think I just screwed up the exhaust cam gear. One other question the new tensioner didn't have hardly any resistance when compressed.

Car cranks, but won't start

Why should I check the timing belt, if I didn't don anything to screw up the timing, it ran before I took it apart.

Please help

Today, I was taking off the cam gears to get the chain tensioner out, and I dropped one of the two bolts down an oil drain. I don't know what to do. I don't really feel like getting the bolt, unless it will cause harm. If I have to, I don't know how to go about it. -Thanks
