Log Landed On Shaft Of Stihl Ms 131 Fully Extended

I was cutting a log when it's one back and landed on top of the shaft fully extended. It bent it. It ran for a little while and then it was like the shaft linkage came undone and the chain will not turn. How bad did I mess it up and what would it cost to fix
