51 plate corsa c 1.2 16v - top end not turning - andyb9696

my corsa broke down a few weeks ago and the top end wont turn, I have been told its the timing chain by a mechanic, but I can only find reference to a timing belt, and no one seems willing to look at! has the engine been damaged too much or what can i do:-(

Yes it is a timing chain. Expect a few bent valves and a hefty bill. Look up good garages on this forum header. Regards Peter
