Open main gear doors which suggests ALTN gear extension was used, the nose gear seems to have jammed which was probably the reason for the missed approach. It seems to have been well handled, general advice is to gently lower the nose onto the tarmac while still under control rather than holding off until it smashes on.

The aircraft will probably fly again after some skin bashing, plenty of spare parts available from all the B767s sitting in boneyards.
