Broken Chain - motor spins over real easy - could be described the same way as the starter will be spinning much faster than when cranking an engine with proper timing. Hence the comment-check the motor/ring gear first, then proceed to other options. It's always a crap shoot to diagnose by a description of sound - a very subjective observation.

Lay under the van, looking at the starter. Have wife turn key back and forth to "Start". If you're by yourself, drop the starter, put power and ground to it on the workbench; you'll see whether or not it's engaging.

 

Even with a busted chain, more than 1 cylinder will have both valves closed, creating compression. You would hear the engine cranking over.
