The best bet is to go by the recommended maintenance time in the owners manual. The timing belt could last much longer, but when it breaks there will be no warning. If the engine is known as close tolerance then the engine could be ruined.

Timing chains are not a scheduled maintenance replacement unlike a timing belt. Timing chains usually don't need to be replaced unless there is a problem with the engine itself. Timing chains will last as long as the engine. This is from personal experience.
