Silver fuse? Probably a circuit breaker......just plug that back in.....

I assume the car cranks over, but doesn't fire?

If the car was running ok, until the belt broke, it's possible the broken belt took out the crank sensor or the harness to it......this would be verified by no spark and no injector pulse....
