Default Rover 45 question

Received this in the club's email
Any suggestions?

Hi, I came across your forum rover, I would like to ask one thing, as I
was unable to find anything good online, I found a good deal for a Rover
45 2.0i TD / 113CV rover, really beautiful and in excellent condition, I
am Italian and I live in Italy, and the car is in Italy, I could not
find any information on this engine, who produces it? has the
distribution belt (if yes, at what mileage do you change?) or the metal
chain ? thanks for any help or explanations, I would be happy to know
more about this engine to avoid future problems, thanks, regards Alessio

I have one of those ,its " L "series Diesel made by Rover at Longbridge . Two belts , one at front driving cams, the other at rear driving injection pump. Early Land Rover Freelander had the same engine . DMGRS supply some spares https://www.dmgrs.co.uk/collections/...s-engine-parts
Not sure of interval but will have a look at my Handbook & report back
Rover recommended Belts change every 84 K Miles ( 134K Kms ) or 7 years which ever earlier.

There are two different belt intervals depending on chassis number
