Does the Peugeot Boxer have a timing chain or cam belt?

I have two Peugeot Boxers, both 1998cc, 2016 & 2017. Do they have a timing chain or cam belt? I understand that if they have a timing chain, that as long as they are regularly serviced, the chain should last a lifetime.

I believe this engine uses and belt and a chain. As long as the oil is kept clean with a year change then it should last the life of the van. The belt should probably be replaced every five years or 60,000 miles (whichever comes first).
