I think there's a belt that may have snapped from the stress or come loose. I could be wrong though. Just hit it with a hammer.

Belt from motor to drum most likely.

Whirlpool too loaded is easy to fix as long as the motor is good. There is a rubber coupler and plastic cogs that connect motor to transmission. The rubber or teeth on plastic cog are shot more than likely.
