Well I've ordered a new set so I'll replace them when they show up. Hopefully when I get it all back together it'll start this time!

Bolt it back up with the old gasket anyway, don't do the bolts mega tight.

Then check it turns over by hand so we know that's fixed..

There is one possibility that I forgot although it's slim but should be checked anyway. It's possible the water pump is very very seezed.

Ok well I'll try turning it over by hand again tonite with the old gasket, shame it's not really re-usable as its only been on for a couple of weeks Is the water pump the pulley directly above the crank pulley and below the tensioner? If so I tried turning this by hand this morning and no issues there.
