If there's a service sticker or workshop sticker on the car somewhere, that might give you someone to call.
The seller didn't list it saying it was done at 100000? 100k is the major service and is usually listed as a selling point.
Timing belts are wear and tear items, so if you can't find for sure that it has been changed then i'd be changing it. If you don't and it breaks then you're up for a lot more cost than changing it would be.

thanks for the tips on looking for sticker, will look for it later.i cant just pull the cam cover off by hands right?cause they might be screwed with bolt?unfortunately i don't have any tools to do that yet..
I'm abit tight with my spending money right now, how much exactly it may cost?
