Can anyone confirm whether or not my car has a timing belt or chain?

Someone asked if I have had my cambelt changed but asking two different garages, they have come back with different responses. One saying I have a belt and therefore would expect me to do 150,000+ miles, and the other quoting me £170 for a belt change…

My car has 73k miles so if it’s a chain I'm fine for the moment I guess.

It's a chain and will last the life of the engine. The only belt drives the alternator (very quick and easy to check condition of this).
