Can anyone tell me how I can find out if a given year and engine
Malibu uses a timing belt or a timing chain? Is there a listing
somewhere showing various car makes and models (and engines) and which
use timing chains? TIA for any info.

If you are talking about the 1997, and 2004 -on Malibu's with the 4
cylinder engine its a timing chain. Gates has a manual that shows belts and
chains.
