I think the best way to get an answer to this question is to phone a Land Rover dealer, and speak to the parts department.
If your lucky, and the person you speak to is good at his/her job, they will know, as they will be the person who prices up the parts for cars that go into the dealer for repair following cam-belt failure.
They will be able to say "most of the time yes" or "most of the time no" or "50:50".
