check and make sure the engine is tight , check the clutch bell. I think its the clutch bell clutch the spring probably came off. You have to remove the engine from the car to check that.

Yes, it's probably clutch related. When you rev the engine do the clutch bell and spur gear rotate or not? If not then it's the clutch for certain.
