is there a milage that the chain should be done at?
The Aux belts just drive the engine's "external" accessories, alternator, water pump etc... has nothing to do with the cam chain, which is "internal".
The belts are usually an "on condition" item, replace when required, no specific mileage as such, some last many 10's of thousands of miles, some don't.
The cam chain should last quite a long time if the engine has been looked after and serviced regularly....the tensioners do fail sometimes but it is quite rare.
