Gear or belt timing?

Am I correct that all OZ jackaroos and rodeos with a 2.8L (4JB1T) have timing gears??? Whereas all/most imports - e.g. MUs etc, have a timing belt?

Also, if anyone has any leads on a cheap 4JB1T... (preferably in WA)...

not sure, i think they differ. but if it has a plastic cover its a blet, and metal its a chain.

I didn't think any had chains? I thought it was gears or a belt???

Thanks for the link to that site - plenty of useful info!
