There is no service interval for the chain. It is replaced only 'on condition' - that is, if something is wrong. Many folks have run their cars well over 200K on the original chain. A major key to long chain life is regular oil and filter changes with good quality oil.
The valve cover gaskets tend to get leaky every 4-6 years or so. When I replace the gasket (a simple task) I inspect the chain for wear.
I've never had a worn timing chain, and I've had (or have) cars with 140-165K miles.
