Is the engine now locked up?
Compression?
Your going to have to do some digging, back track what you did..

Carb wouldn't do what your engine did.
What's the compression, does it have spark?
Everything look ok under the valve cover?

Here's a pic of a BR600 I re-assembled after a valve let loose. There isn't any clamp, (as I re-call and see), just friction. If the boot fits snugly, it should be ok as it's squashed between the block and carb. A small zip tie would work too if needed as there's just literally slight pulses..
