I need to replace the out side engine belt.
is it a timing belt as well? Or there is a timing chain.

Yes, it is equipped with timing belts.

An easy way to distinguuish between chain and belt driven engines would be the timing cover. Belt driven engines would have plastic covers behind the crank pulley.
