Very basic question re Mazda 6

A very basic question from a brand new member. I have just bought, but not yet taken delivery of, a 2004 Mazda 6 1.8TS. Could somebody kindly advise me if the engine is cambelt or camchain? Thanks in advance.

TS, Gracie?
Most, if not all Mazda engine in their current guise, use timing chains, which are supposed to last the life of the engine/car.

Many thanks, virgin1. I thought that was the case but needed confirmation.

(First time I've had contact with a virgin for a long time!!)
