Looks like somebody smacked the handle tie, breaking off the ends of all 4 handles. The left pole will only provide half the intended power because one of its breakers is switched off. If that's a 200-amp panel, it's unlikely to be an issue because few homes will actually draw 100 amps from one pole at any given time. And if the house tried to draw much more, the other breaker will just trip. Of course, the entire main breaker should be replaced.
