The actual name for this belt is the Cam Belt. Its purpose is to turn the cam in the engine which opens and closes the valves at the correct time. Therefore the term timing belt is sometimes used.
timing belt has nothing to do with transmission so it is possoble for you to have a timing belt it may be a timing chain also the purpose of the belt or chain is to keep the crank shaft turning in time with the cam shafts yes, the timing belt is independent of the transmission.
Timing chains and timing belts are used to turn the cam shaft. The term timing chain or belt is a misnomer. They are really just a cam chain or cam belt.
