The Pathfinder (VW) diesel is a single overhead cam design, so it needs a
belt or chain to drive the camshaft off the crankshaft.

 

Most diesels use pushrods and the camshaft is in the block, not in the
cylinder head.

What are you timing?   A diesel doesn't have spark plugs and the valves are
on a cam shaft.

To my knowledge all yanmar engines are gear driven.

Kubota based marine engines are also gear driven.

Rob, 

The 2GMF timing is gear driven. There is no timing belt to change.
