Secondly, no the engine won't try to turn over. The starter barely made a noise, so I pulled the starter and it's fine.

The engine is locked up.



CEL is the light on your gauge cluster that says" check engine" check engine light=CEL.
Aka MIL = malfunction indicator light. Both are the same thing.

As for the engine I have no clue really. Could be hundreds of things. Timing chain (I doubt it),
Fly wheel or trany.
Just guessing as I can't see the car.
