Make a sharpie mark on damper and see if it hits the stop in exactly the same place. Busted damper will probably stop engine in a different place each time.

Any stuck valves?

Inj pump can stick from sitting, but usually not enough to jam the engine.
Bolded, are you saying put a sharpie mark on the pulley damper at the front of the engine, please say so. The transmission damper cannot be seen until tranny removal, by then you know if it is the culprit.
