Does anyone know if the above engine is belt or chain driven?

A friend has just been recovered by Green Flag and they've diagnosed water pump failure. Just need to know if he needs to do a timing belt swap whilst it's all apart. I'm not familiar with the engine and how the pump
is driven.

Thanks to anyone who can confirm smile

Chain driven, water pump is driven off the aux belt.

Thanks for the reply.

It's a straightforward job then? If so I'll do it myself as he's getting married this year and needs the cash!
