So I found out that my 4 runner has pretty much died. Do I try and sell it for parts/ as is, Buy a motor, Or sell it to a scrap yard?
Whats wrong with you ask? Well she thought it would be fun to pull one of the pulleys off and snap the bolt that holds it in place, and possibly mess with the timing, bend a rod, mess with the valves (don't know for sure haven't had it opened once I saw the bolt was snapped). I'm not sure if its worth trying to fix the engine as most options are going to cost more than its worth. Thanks for any and all advise in advance.

Welcome to the board, sorry to hear about your truck. What shape is the rest of it in? If it's mostly clean, it's definitely worth getting a junkyard motor and throwing it in. Or even rebuilding the one you've got, the 5VZE is a noninterference engine and your valves and rods may be fine.
