sprocket coming off? or other side of engine, clutch nut loose, water pump bearing, clutch plates broken, crank f~~~d, crankcases broken in half, hard to tell really, sounds like you haven't even had a look round it to me, dangerous to go riding out on it?

Befor you get to worred have you looked at the fly wheel to see if its come loos . some times that can make a hell of a racket and people think the engin has fallen apart and the like and its just the flywheel come loos and clattering about in the cover. more so on an lc as the cover is alloy but its worth alook .
